Federal Reserve Chairman Jay Powell warns Americans they must expect 'SOME PAIN' amid fears of job losses as the US central bank tries to bring down crippling inflation
2022-05-14
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Fed chair Jay Powell issued warning to Americans struggling with inflation

  • The medicine will bring 'some pain,' he said in an interview on Thursday

  • Powell is trying to bring down inflation without triggering a recession

  • That could mean job losses and pay freezes for workers

  • He spoke after being confirmed for a second term as head of the central bank

  • The Fed is now in the process of raising interest rates to slow borrowing and spending enough to cool off inflation

  • Powell's support in Congress demonstrates that Republicans largely blame Biden's spending rather than the Fed's ultra-low interest rates and purchasing of trillions of dollars in securities
