Big business has been gouging consumers and now the Federal Reserve Board has taken action by raising interest rates. The intent is to make you demand less and ease up the supply chain. Does anyone believe that companies will stop gouging us? It seems to me that this will only punish consumers, put more money in the banks (your credit rates will go up) and give companies another "excuse" to raise prices. Any economists who care to tell me where I'm wrong are welcome to explain in the comments. [NPR]
