Would like to see Esther George as the next Fed Chair...

....and sooner rather than later.

Story

"""To forestall another bubble, George, 56, says it’s time for the Fed to start raising interest rates it has kept near zero since 2008. She argues that ultra-cheap credit is no longer needed to support an expansion that’s in its sixth year after the worst recession since the 1930s.

“The Fed took pretty aggressive action because we were in a fairly desperate situation,” George said. “Once we saw the economy turn, we might have removed some of those emergency measures, including zero interest rates.” """

    The bond vigilantes will raise rates long before the fed does.

    Guess it is better to let the stock and junk bond markets keep rising and then crash.

    Yellen can say Duuuuhuh, what happened, as Greenspan did after the housing market went bustoid.
