re: Big business would scream

The Federal reserve is doing something to reign in borrowing...They are raising their rates...That really doesn't bother most of the larger corporations who are pretty flush with Working Capital on their Balance Sheets...Large businesses have plenty of alternatives available when it comes to raising capital...They are not to terribly dependant on Federal Reserve policy...The Fed raising interest rates does however put a serious dent in the budgets of the smaller businesses...And those smaller businesses employ the vast majority of American workers.

I'm not saying that reigning in debt is bad or good...But this is Just something to keep in mind...
