The Fed has painted itself into a corner.

If they raise their interest rates up to the inflation rate, there will be a monumental crash that will get the Great Depression renamed the Minor Recession.

Precisely. They can’t raise rates and still service the debt. They are screwed.

No, make that WE the middle class are screwed.

There will NEVER be a ‘crash’ allowed on a democrat watch. If Trump of any other Republican wins in 2024 there will be a correction of monumental proportions.

The Fed will try to raise rates and chaos will ensue. Then they will very shortly have to lower.
