The sun gives the Earth energy ion an hour to power everything hence there is a way converting that energy efficently. Only if USA spent the 400 billion on research rather the oil war in Iraq.

The Fed is lowering rates to ward off deflation. You cannot have inflation for long in the face of a massive housing price deflation and global credit contraction. They can inject all the money they want into the system but if consumers and businesses won't/can't borrow then we are into a Japan-like deflation.

If they do raise Interest rates there still would be inflation as it is due to higher demand in energy and food prices around the world as you outlined. So it is more an issue of supply and demand of these goods rather and just low interest rates causing the inflation. Hmmmm what will they do? either way the market is going to fall.
