>>That entire industry is now doing 90-95% of their transactions for entirely non-productive purposes!<< whaddya mean unproductive?? lower rates === more credit == more economic activity. Joe Blow who makes widgets, gets to keep making them for another 4-5 months and borrow more money to buy some other kind of widget. Someone else makes that widget and he gets to keep his job for another 5 month borrowing a little bit more ... and when it's done we can all go and live in the house that Al built. <s>
