They don't really need to stoke the inflation fire. I just heard, and I haven't verified yet, that new Series EE Bonds are going to pay .7% a year for 30 years. Govt. is using -5.5% as the benchmark rate to come up with this yield. That would get people spending money. Who's going to put money into junior's college fund at .7%? Oh and another item.. I-bonds are paying 0% interest at least through Oct. 31, 2009.
