<why do you think the Feds want to be in such a hurry to raise rates?>

1. Even using their understated and bogus inflation data, they (a number of them, think there is a split)) now realize that real interest rates are too low, which has also lead to

2. Too much leveraged speculation and wild man (moral hazard) behavior, incredible given that the fault for this lies squarely at their feet. They now wish to reign this in.

3. Excess demand, imbalanced economy, needs a hiatus.

4. The US has received a strong message from foreign creditors, and I think it's slow down your printing of Dollars and Old Maid Cards, or we may dump.
