And the real danger of the Fed using interest rate cuts to stave off financial crises (LTCM, Asian currency, S&L, etc.) is that it forces people who are typically savers to reallocate their saved money into equities because money market and CD interest rates drop so low that they aren't producing competitive returns. In effect, the Fed, in order to bail out mostly corporate interests, forces individuals to take on more risk than they may want to.
