Yes, the interest rate would be higher, but don't fall into the trap of trying to _set_ it higher. It's the setting itself that causes problems, not just what the rate is.
Increased savings drives down interest rates, increased demand increases interest rates. That balance is very dynamic and needs to be left alone in order to function at all.
The Fed, in this "stimulus", is actually giving banks and GM and etc, money. Crediting their bank accounts by adding zeros to their bank's balance the bank are required to carry at the Federal Reserve. They don't even need to print the bills or coin the metals any more.
But the bank itself, with the "fractional reserve" system, gets to loan out 9 times that money, which is what really exacerbates the inflation of the monetary base.
Retail lending will follow, but most people realize they don't want to get into debt right now. It's not that banks aren't loaning, it's that people know the fecal matter is striking the atmospheric impeller.
At the same time, the "sub prime" crap burned lots of fingers, so that same "loan on just your signature" isn't happening, and the people with good credit scores are the very ones tightening their belts for the coming storm.
If you ask on the Mises.org forum people will answer. Better would be to watch the daily articles until one comes up that is somewhat related, and then ask in that comment area while it's "new" and people are actively checking it.
