The Fed’s manipulation does affect short term rates more than long term.

But my statement is still true.

Interest rates should be determined by the markets, not Ivy League elites.

I hear your philosophical stand on the Fed, but the fact is they set short term rates. Mid and long term rates are determined by the market.
