Ben Bernanke Saves Economy Again, For Eternity!
The Federal Reserve cut the federal funds rate -- "the" rate -- by half of a percentage point today to 3%, a week after they freaked out and cut it by three-quarters of a point. Ben Bernanke and his minions indicated there may be more rate cuts on the way, too. Hooray! Eventually they can get that bitch down to 1%, then we can all buy mansions with $5 down payments and deal with the damn adjustable interest later. Because we're all getting mansions! [ AP/Breitbart ]
