Rate drops make sense in the grand scheme, considering that when people have less money, the interest rates drop to encourage them to borrow money. This does seem a bit backwards however since unemployed people have a difficult time paying back the money they borrow. They are a high risk. High risk borrowers drive the interest rates up. But debt seems to be the American way, whether you have money or not.
