That was not tongue in cheek... Tax cuts are one response that may make sense. Rate cuts another: you are forgetting that foreigners dont by neccesity lend us their money.

<Greenspan needs to cut interest rates right now. NAPM was VERY weak and consumer confidence is collapsing as we write> Got gold??? Unfortunately for Greenspan his dam has been open so wide that everyone has all the water they want... that said I'm sure he will at least offer more. DAK

<<Greenspan needs to cut interest rates right now. NAPM was VERY weak and consumer confidence is collapsing as we write...>> What many people are forgetting here is that if BubbleBoy takes the machette to rates right now, the dollar will absolutely TANK! What will happen to foreign investment (that lone tent pole propping up this circus of a market) if that happens? Not to mention bonds and all other dollar-denominated assets! BubbleBoy is in a box of his own design...and there is NO easy way out, including rate cuts.
