CUTTING INTEREST RATES WILL MAKE INFLATION WORST, THEY NEED TO RAISE RATES TO BRING DOWN INFLATION

[@Bjamin9891]

Exactly. Should have let banks fail in 08 should have let the market not the government figure out covid now it’s incredibly bad

They're doing this to sabotage the next presidential administration. It's intentional.

Makes no sense to lower interest rates.
