The Fed Could Use Some Help

Fed should raise rates, marginally .25 each quarterly meeting. This shows the global investor there is coordinated Central Bank planning and actions. It would lift the dollar and begin curbing inflation for the consumer and take off speculative froth. Meanwhile, the article writer has a point and that is for government subsidies into infrastructure. This of course should be energy. Whom manages the subsidies is perhaps the bigger question. My opinion is spread out $200 B between the regional banks whom demonstrated fiscal responsibility these last five years. $50 B should be placed into the SBA, to provide loans to small business. The top is bloated and the bottom will get there hand-outs, but it is the middle that needs love to create true innovation in energy and the jobs that will create the floor to this downward spiral.
