So taking the devils advocate view. A sharp decline in energy costs affects the economy because most of the money for energy costs will now not be allowed to be pumped out of the american worker. Which now gets a payraise basically. But that is bad, because we need to figure out now how to make their dollar worth less. This is Planet Earth correct?

So if i have a good memory, someone (like insurance company and pension funds) cry that this long time at 0 rate is driven their business to have big problem. So a weaken dollar is good for export, but it's not good for people like worker that pay much more in what they buy from the import. So if i'm not wrong if you pay much for the goods that you buy then you have less money to spend, then consumer price is forced to weaken, it's seem logic n?

Yeah, but now the markets is showing us a real sign of fear. FED is not in control of the economy and their balance sheets are full of inflationary bond. That's the reasons why inflation target is at 2%. maybe the greatest collapse in stock market by year is around the corner
