The bottom line is simple - capital lost during a de-leveraging comes from the pocket of the saver.

To be more accurate, the saver lost the capital when it was lent and spent. The de-leveraging merely forces a realization of that previous loss.

Even Pirates on the look-out for some good loot, find a portion of the value of their loot vanishes when a government creates money to make good on bank losses.
