alan greenspan defends himself
some say that due to greenspan’s keeping interest rates too low for too long, that he paved the way for or even caused the current economic crisis facing the real estate market (which in turn directly affects the overall economy). he also stands accused of not having done more to prevent sub-prime lending, which in turn leads (and has led) to a record number of foreclosures as well as falling housing prices, and the so-called “bursting of the housing bubble”. greenspan defends himself against these accusations and more in the opening segment of the 60 minute interview with lesley stahl (aired 9/16/2007) btw- i know little to nothing about economics and lending practices. if i am stating something incorrectly above, please feel free to kindly point it out to me, and i will make a correction (when i can finally make the time). thank you.

Banks Raising Interest Rates on Credit Cards!
Very recently credit Card interest rates have risen dramatically, more than doubling in some cases. We are in the midst of a huge economic crisis and any money consumers spend to pay off credit card interest rate debt is NOT going to be spent on stimulating the economy. Lets prevent a National Bankruptcy crisis like the Subprime Mortgage Crisis by either: 1) Instituting an Economic Emergency National Usury Rate – say 12% or so, or; 2) Roleback the Fed Reserves July 2010 Regulation to make them retroactively valid for January 1, 2009 (see www.federalreserve.gov Contact your Senator and House Representative. writerep.house.gov www.senate.gov
