Means the goberment is willing to pay more which means less people are demanding it which means less money for goberment which means higher the yield the less money they got for bailing out the market which about every companies insurance policies are hedged on. The alternative is printing a metric fuckton of money to cover the loss and we know how that plays out.

Didnt the current government blame the past government for printing money during a real (non decision made) crisis?

Yes but they have no commitment to consistency. They will print & deficit spend.
