The cost of borrowing is coming down. For the first time since the 2008 financial crisis, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates. The central bank lowered the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter percentage point Wednesday. The decision could make it easier for consumers to borrow money, on everything from credit cards to car loans. CBS News business analyst Jill Schlesinger joins "CBS This Morning" with a look at what the decision means for your wallet.

Each weekday morning, "CBS This Morning" co-hosts Gayle King, Anthony Mason and Tony Dokoupil deliver two hours of original reporting, breaking news and top-level newsmaker interviews in an engaging and informative format that challenges the norm in network morning news programs. The broadcast has earned a prestigious Peabody Award, a Polk Award, four News & Documentary Emmys, three Daytime Emmys and the 2017 Edward R. Murrow Award for Best Newscast. The broadcast was also honored with an Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Award as part of CBS News division-wide coverage of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Isn't it interesting that federal rate cuts never benefit the population in a way where it matters most: student loans and mortgages. So who does it benefit? The wealthy. And who pays it back? The people, by having interest rates later raised for them down the line to make up for the loss.

the lower the interest rates, the more idiotic ideas entrepreneurs and governments can realize.
 High interest rates ensured that only very good ideas could survive.
