"we could realized our dreams sooner." Our dreams will never end and will never been realized. That's why it is called a dream. When you have $1m, you dream $2m. When you have $2m, you dream $5m. It never ends...

I'm not concerned about interest rates as they apply to the NYSE and NASDAC companies of this world. But 90% (I think I'm right about this percentage) of American business is small business (sole proprietorships, partnerships, etc.). A healthy U.S economy depends upon the health and prosperity of small business. And small business in this country absolutely depends upon low interest rates to survive. They don't have IPO capital. They go to the bank. So, sure, you can throw another point or two at the NASDAC and it'll keep going up for awhile but the belly of our economy, small business, will suffer and that will eventually reach up and slap us silly. I'm through venting. It's just that I live in a small, rural, mountain community and the mom and pop business folks worry constantly about adequate capital, interest rates and making payroll. And the weather, of course.
