The Fed's Powell is risking a recession to crush inflation. A lot of ... (Politico)

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is slamming the brakes on the U.S. economy harder than any Fed chief in more than 40 years to kill raging inflation.

“When the economy is doing well, it’s easy to support the Fed chair,” she said. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) said Powell could “ease off the brake a little bit,” pointing to market-based measures that show investors expect inflation to return to normal in the not-too-distant future. “Having said that, I think that they’re faced with this decision of how to use the one tool that they have in order to break the cycle of inflation, which is in some ways driven by people’s expectations.” That proved invaluable during the previous administration when Republicans supported him in the face of withering criticism from then-President Donald Trump, who wanted Powell to lower interest rates. “This is why we have the Federal Reserve chair,” Sen. “The Fed has this one tool, which is raising rates, and it’s not a tool that is actually all that effective for some of the most significant inflationary pressures that we’re facing,” Sen. “He’s doing the best he can.” “The inflation pain is there and ever-present; the unemployment pain is in the future,” said former Federal Reserve Vice Chair Donald Kohn. His promise to stay the course has fueled anxiety and scrutiny from Wall Street and progressive groups worried that the central bank will overcompensate, raising rates too high and causing a painful downturn. “I suspect that as the unemployment rate rises and once companies begin to do a little less hiring and more laying off, there will be more blowback. That has prompted Fed officials to pencil in even higher rates this year and next. “We have no control over that,” said Brown, whose committee oversees the Fed.
