   remember, lowering the rate at the fed doesn't fix this, because it doesn't put any money in consumers' hands.

     All that can maybe happen with lower rates is businesses could do teaser rates .. for consumers to spend more money that they already don't have

     @TeaTootler well, deflation is rough for a lot of companies. Anything you've purchased in the past and are still pay for becomes more expensive.
     
     If you've purchased a $10 million machine under the assumption that it will spit out widgets such that it pays for itself in 2 year, and you've financed $8mil of that.. if your widgets start selling for less, you still have that cost you incurred prior to the deflation.
