US Federal Reserve fights inflation with third 0.75% rate hike • FRANCE 24 English

Dear Russian people, save your boys, Let them live, get married, have children, buy cars, pay bills, get into debt, do you really think that Putin cares about them. No country will ever attack Russia, ever. Save your children before it's too late, or spend the rest of your life crying over pictures of your lost sons. There are no patriots in cemeteries. This man has caused enough pain for one thousand years.

These rate increases aren’t going to work because it is actually a supply problem and a greed problem. This just hurts the poor because they have to use credit cards to buy their food and gas which will be more expensive than inflation itself.

Both are needed. Time or Money. Want it now it cost twice as much. If you wait it is cheaper you wait.

The US Federal Reserve Board has been saying many things of late but what is NEW going on for some time now is the use of "forward guidance" in setting rate policy. Normally this is done in the "oblique" through open discussions ("hearings") with the US Senate Finance Committee so why that has changed is quite very not good. Anyhow USA prices are in free fall at the moment true all Summer

Why are all the comments being removed?

Complete Bull - raising interest rates increasing the cost of business and some consumer borrowing, and while consumers may spend less as a result, higher costs for business are nearly always passed on to who? CONSUMERS. Raising business' costs just gives them an excuse to further raise prices leading to what? INFLATION. This cycle repeats until prices outpace consumers ability to cope and there is a RESESSION.

Nice

Um....very few in the United States have "extra money " to spend they can continue to raise interest rates and it will only have a minimal impact on inflation. Politicians have a disconnect from what is happening on the streets in the United States.

All the politics - financial would wide affairs are lies - approximately - and you with others ; are participating in covering up .
