Bloomberg: New bailout bill allows the Federal Reserve to lower rates in "stealth"

"The central bank used power granted under last week's financial-rescue legislation to effectively set a floor under its main interest rate that's lower than the 2 percent target set by policy makers last month. The Fed may now pay interest on bank reserves while it floods financial markets with liquidity, pushing down the overnight lending rate by about 0.75 percentage point to 1.25 percent."

Anybody understand what this means?

I'm guessing they want to monetize some more debt to create some more liquidity? I don't know...

It sounds like they are

It sounds like they are going to give money away for cheap and will not tell anyone what they are doing. It can't be reviewed by law so they think they can't be blamed for the collapse. I think they're wrong, and the people will prove it.

In other words, the slime bag bankers are getting very wealthy.
