Can't say my business has been great but it hasn't been extremely slow either - for which I am ever so grateful.
My personal opinion (and I certainly hope I am correct for all of our sakes) is that now that the government will not be pumping money into the private sector, and in order to get our economy to start rolling again, money has to be pumped into the system from somewhere.
The one place I see is in keeping mortgage rates low so that more and more people will eventually refinance and have more $$$'s in their pocket as disposable income. Then they start buying things that will put others back to work. Hope I'm not just pipe dreaming. I think it sounds logical. Money to prime our economy has to come from somewhere - that's why all the bailouts in the first place. Now the private sector (I guess that would be the FED) will need to ponder its position in keeping the economy floating and growing.
Better for us in the long run - hopefully. Where else can money come from to fuel the economy?
Just my 2 cents.
