Explanation:

The savings and loans crisis of the 1980s was the failure of about 747 of the 3,234 savings and loan associations in the United States. A savings and loans or "second hand" financial institution is an institution that accepts savings deposits and makes mortgages, and other personal loans to individual members of a cooperative enterprise known in the United Kingdom as a Real Estate Loan Company. "As of December 31, 1995, the Resolution Trust Corporation estimates that the total cost for the resolution of the 747 bankrupt institutions was $ 87.9 billion." The rest of the rescue plan was paid for charges to the savings and loan accounts that contributed to the large budget deficits of the 1990s.
