There are alternatives. It only takes will power and political guts to do them. Which isn't part of the political scheme of things apparently. With so much inbox mess piling up on the oval office desk. Just let things operate as it has for so long albeit as ineffectual as it is. That being the Federal Reserve and it's stale bread policy of fighting inflation with higher interest rates. Keeping in mind the head of this institution is by training a lawyer. Though the Secretary of the Treasury has a trained economist at it's helm offers no better insight.
It all shows how ossified both the economic profession is and what political inflexibility has become.

It wasn't always this way as Richard Wolff points out. He gives 3 examples here of historical applications of flexibility to the problem of inflation has been dealt with by both parties. Apparently, letting a pimple develop into an abscess is the way to deal with this situation these days.
