Stock markets went UP after the announcement, which tells me that the rate hikes have already been PRICED IN before.

U.S. economy performing well?

You mean with 94 million out of the labor force and Effective Unemployment Rate at 20% or more...???

I don’t know what world these clowns are living in.

So desperate are they to prop up Onambla it’s sickening.

I am glad. I hope we will have real interest rates again. Banks need to go back to their core business of loaning money and paying interest on savings. Old people and fixed income people need to make money on their savings in a safe manner.

The zero interest thing has been an unnecessary distortion.

Wow you mean I might get $1.07 in interest versus $1.05?

I took a political survey today, and they were citing facts like “Obama’s recovery created 9 million jobs!” and “77 percent wage gap”. I rated it all poorly and then informed the questioner that most of those facts were NOT TRUE.

The only reason they are looking at raising rates is because negative interest rates are unsustainable.

“With the economy performing well and expected to continue to do so,”

This is a joke right?

And the 15 year mortgage refi didn’t budge...how likely is that with a raise in the rate? Still at 3.16%, an extremely low rate.

The entire "game" is rigged. The Goldman Sachs cartel and the money gambler bankers know every chess move in advance.

What we are seeing now is more profiteering before the fleecing. They want a few more of your Billions into a promised "retirement" before they crash the videogame.

The fact that the pagan worshipers hang on this hag's every word and deed is a testament to how much they have sold their souls.

A Reckoning is coming.

The Social Security 2016 Benefits Statements are hitting Mailboxes as we speak.

NO increase for 2016 because Inflation is ZERO according to the Overlords.

Funny how Interest Rates went up a day or two after those Statements were mailed. Just a coincidence I’m sure.

Anyone with Credit Card Debt will the first to notice...
