As long as they can cut rates they will be able to pump debt volume...

 

The "Temporary" effect is less effective each time... One of these times it will have no effect...Gameover.

 

The only economic growth they are trying to "Spark" is growth in debt...

 

7-11 months left, maximum, in this game.

 

Natural Gas is shaping up to be the scapegoat...

I have serious reservations that cutting rates will have more than a minimal effect on the economy, and may even be counter-prductive in the short as well as long run.

 

Very low interest rates will discorage investment in money market type investments, which means less invested in the commercial paper market, etc..

 

There is an over-focus of all markets on the level of interest rates and not the amount of credit created. Without continued expansion of credit, I agree the economy will fall on its face.

Will folks ever wake up and realise that the fed is the cause of the problem and not the solution ?

Yes, but years from now. During the depths of the 21st Century Depression, when the banking system has to be replaced.
