A thing that makes me nervous is that, for ages, the Fed never successfully re-raised interest rates because the market panicked every time they even mentioned it. But if things go badly, lowering interest rates isn't even possible...

@cwebber Just do it without a press release and suddenly find a shifty distraction when someone asks about interest rates
