If interest rates are a function of savings in an economy, and Americans have no savings, then why are interest rates so low?

Interest rates used to be a function of savings when we are the gold standard. Now the Federal reserve sets I tereat rates to.whatever they want by printing money and buying treasuries. They always want it low so the govt doesn't default.

Because they want you to get a credit card and use that instead of spending what you can save up
