FED: Q&A continues:
- Q: Re framework review, do you ever consider the limitations of monpol, should
you be more explicit about that?
A: We try to be clear about that. Fiscal policy can do those things that
increase the longer-run growth rate. Not monetary policy.
- Q: Trump called you boneheads, just now called you a terrible communicator.
A: I'm not going to change my practice here today of not addressing comments
from elected officials. Continue to believe Fed independence has served the
public well, we don't let political considerations interfere.
