Well that’ll sure help the economy.

It's the most commonly used tool to fight inflation but it may not be effective in this case. I suspect that they will ease rates up to try and moderate the inflation rate and see if it helps.

Lol, that gave me a chuckle. The feds are between a rock and a hard place in that raising interest rates will add billions to the national debt.

Yea, I suspect they’ll ease rates up too.
