How serious is the concern of a financial crisis?

"Federal Reserve Action Announces New Loan System To Member Banks
Dear Friends,
The Federal Reserve action today formalizes what has been the policy of
the Fed from almost day one of the visibility of the credit and default
derivative meltdown and credit market lockup.
What is occurring is THE MONETIZATION OF BANKRUPTCY.
The predictable result of monetizing bankruptcy is a significant
increase in inflation and a sharply lower dollar.
The result of a sharply lower dollar is sharply higher gold regardless
of the dress up process being applied to the US dollar and gold today.
The dress up is to prevent a stinging rebuff for the Federal Reserve
paying a FARCE price for bankrupt derivative packages purely to keep
the banks that are almost all on the edge solvent.
This action speaks negatively for 30 year US Treasury bonds.
What needs to be understood is that there are more than $20 trillion
dollars worth of credit and default derivatives out there.
The next key point is that nominal value of this over $20 trillion of
credit and default derivatives becomes full value when the derivative
fails to perform.
This comes on a modest capital injection into a bond guarantee company
that facilitates pinning a tin AAA debt rating heart on them; something
that is a total fallacy.
The problem at the heart of the deteriorating credit lockup situation
is OTC credit and default derivatives that have failed to perform.
The inviting conclusion then is that $200 billion is as pimple on the
ass of an elephant.
Nobody in his or her right mind wishes to see what is coming in 2011.
It approaches the 'Day After' and 'Mad Max' in a financial sense."
