I don't think it's the reason Bernanke resigned.
Bond funds are beginning to short treasuries, investor sentiment is hopeless, the market is discounting QE and the only hope is a Fed chairman (or woman) with a penchant for negative interest rates and inflationism.
There are no safe haven investments right now. If you have any treasury bonds frame them and display. Mass deflation ahead

Yes, to an extent; but the government is in a crisis now, and it will stabilize sometime before too long, and then things will get better for a while.
However, I expect increasing problems in the next few years.

Investors are leery because republicans are bent on destroying our economy, have already shut down the government, and are trying to default on our debt.
