The Fed is set to announce small business loans very soon. This is just part of a larger plan.

I'm really curious how startups are positioning themselves for the availability of such loans. Might the terms be so favorable that it drives out the VCs?

Unlikely. Even in these troubling times the fed likes to have assets backing loans. Maybe an SBA program could be competitive but not in the near term.
