They should stay with it. Last time I looked the bonds pits were betting on another 3/4 than a 1/2 with some small raises going into next year so we'll see. I'd like to see at least 2% more, overall. The only way I see them back off is if we get serious down drafts or a bad GDP report.
Politicians/headless chickens ain't more than a handful of them worth spit. I think some get into politics with the right intentions, but when they find out how lucrative it really is they camp our for decades. Most can't get a real job that pays nearly what they make plus all the insider trading benefits, subsidized health care etc. We should be able to vote for our own benefits and do insider trading, then watch those crooks cry foul.. Some just like to hold their thumb over others, Horse Face Piglosi comes to mind with her do as I say not as I do attitude. The thought control police will be next, think of Pink Floyd..
Fishing is ok, more fun for me to watch the others. Personally I can grab an ax and chainsaw, go in the woods for a few hours, sort thru the dead or dying stuff and forget about everything while making firewood for my shop.
You get what you pay for.
