The lowering of interest rates has spiraled several economic issues that is destroying the country.Lower interest rates led to banks making more loans thus lowering their standards and allowing people to purchase houses larger then they can afford. Once foreclosures started the spiral went quickly thus dropping the value of the dollar.A weak dollar made it harder for us to purchase thing from other countries. ( what percent of the price of a barrel of oil is based on the weak dollar )Greenspan got out when the getting was good, he treated every issue as a nail, and used his interest rate hammer.
