Why hesitate to raise rates?

Because the intention isn't to fight inflation. "Too little too late" was designed to fail. They wanted the best (for them) of both worlds, high inflation in core CPI, to pay for the cost of high rates, the 'tax' of which will be bunted to the consumer.

Corporate welfare for them, socialist destruction for everyone else.

The entire collapse is manufactured. It's artificial and purposeful destruction.

A naked power grab and massive wealth transfer to the banks.

Makes sense. There are two classic ways to reduce sovereign debt 1..Increase GDP so you out grow your debt w increasing tax revenues 2. Inflation. Pay off 30 year bonds with dollars worth 1/10th of the ones you borrowed.

Option 2 benefits the State, but totally screws the citizens....but citizens perceive it as "price hikes" caused by companies, not nationwide poverty engineered by Washington. The anger gets misdirected.

Would be interesting to see an inflation-based "put" against bonds. Don't know if thats a thing because I'm not a regular investor.

I'm too ignorant to know the difference, but I'd appreciate if you would be willing.
