the elections are totally rigged.

People still made the irresponsible decision. People still have a free will to make their individual decisions, no matter how manipulated they are. However, it still wasn't an honest election.

I'm au fait with the Austrian's, however I'd stopped watching for interest rate news in Greenspan's time- missed the excitment completely. Thanks

obama was not elected honestly. the media diluted the best men early in the election. leaving obama and accain and hillary to chose from. its all smoke and mirrors

in the words of Robert Murphy, "After holding rates at 1% for a year, the Fed then steadily ratcheted them back up to 5.25% by June 2006."
So after fueling an inflationary boom by buying like crazy, the Fed slowed its buying as it tightened its stance by raising the Fed Funds rate target. from 1% to 5% looks like a much tighter stance, wouldn't you say? are you unfamiliar with Austrian Theory of the Business Cycle?
