Mmmm.. when it gets to this level, it's very hard to get a balance right. The worst scenario is enable a credit crunch (tho there now is one to a degree and likely to continue) by raising interest rates. That can lead to recession and cause severe damage to many people and industries. At the same time, stuff more liquidity into the market by lowering interest rates and the dollar will drop and imports and oil cost more etc. Either way, it smells a no-win scenario.....
