"During financial crashes, banks don't like to make speculative loans, and investors don't like to make speculative investments."

no kidding!

"The Federal Reserve easing interest rates do not automatically lead to mild, shallow recessions."

I only said that the Fed's efforts were orders of magnitude greater then the fiscal changes, in their immediate impact, which I believe is demonstrably true.
