The Fed has a duty to foster maximum employment

Posted on

Interesting that Martin Wolf notes today:

The Fed, added the chairman, has a dual mandate, to foster maximum employment and price stability. Doing nothing would be incompatible with this obligation.

A commentator claimed here the other day that there was no obligation in the USA to create employment.It looks like some strongly disagrees, that he is in a position to do something about it.
