One Hundred Five: How To Stimulate Irresponsible Spending

This is a headline from today's business news:

Fed discussed steps to bolster sputtering recovery
Fed officials weighed steps to bolster recovery; lowers economic growth forecasts

After twenty plus years of conspicuous consumption in this country, we have experienced a severe recession, with unemployment topping out at over 10 percent, retirement portfolios decimated, and interest rates at zero for those of us who still have cash to invest.

This is lunacy
