"What is Ben Bernanke to do? Since his job is simultaneously to avoid recession while protecting against inflation, and right now there’s evidence he faces both problems, he’s in a difficult spot. This is because the policy prescription to fix anemic economic growth will tend to increase inflation. But the prescription to fight inflation will suppress economic growth. You might say Bernanke is between a rock and a hard place. Or up shit creek."
