Doesnt anyone understand that rate cuts ARE NOT GOOD for this slowing economy, what does it take to realize this, if they continue to cut rates there will be greater problems in the next 12-18 months, the reason why the markets and economy are falling apart is DUE to the historical low interest rates greenspan fed the economy back in 2001. This is what created the credit bubble, they think by lowering rates and adding more liquidity to the system that things will get better, IT WONT, this problem has to work it self out with something we all know about: TIME. Thats the only thing that will fix this problem. They are trying to throw everything at the problem, and looking at it over the last 6 months, nothing is working. Cutting the rates to 2% will only create intense inflation and a dollar that will be worthless, the federal reserve should not do a thing.
