M.O.B. Votes:

is it a surprise when the Fed wants to increase interest rates? Its been a decade since they were lowered to levels of 'free money'.

Now that the economy is rebounding (yes, more than the author believes), the Fed should increase rates. The housing market is ridiculous right now and has been for a few years; and its because of free money.

I just dont understand why the author thinks he knows more than the Fed. There are other ways to spur the economy than interest rates.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
