What you fail to remember, it seems, is that Powell tried to do the right thing at the end of 2018 but the then sitting president shamed him into pulling back because Powell's correct actions were causing trouble in the stock market, making the then sitting president look bad. No real concern for the economy in that administration; only focus was on staying in power for that president. Not to say this administration is doing things like they should but this effort at the end of 2018 should not be ignored.
Fair point. I don't fault the then sitting President all that much. Trying to stay in power is written in the job description and you can look back at every President and see patterns of managing to get reelected. That president( who shall be nameless) had helped create one of the strongest economies in decades and putting the breaks on it by allowing Powell to act would have served no one.
Well, we all certainly have our viewpoints on sitting presidents and I would say that the then sitting president had inherited an already thriving economy...be well!

Thank you for your comments. I love when people disagree with me, makes for a healthy exchange.
Thank You for writing what we all know to be true. This administration is devoid of reality and foresight, relegating us to pay for their errors.
