A couple of months ago and we were talking about current rules of engagement as it pertains to afghanistan, with this train, advise and assist mission. Isil is networking. We know they are recruiting in afghanistan. So my question was under this current operation youre under was if isil is identified by american troops or after began National Security forces in the assist mode we are in, can we absolutely destroy isil and the answer from the state department no, maam.

But to chain a central bank to follow a simple mathematical rule that fails to take account of many things that are very important in making Monetary Policy, for example i was earlier asked about being against the euro lower bound which is an important special consideration, that would be a very foolish thing to do, and i oppose it. With respect to proposals having to do with voting and the structure of the fed that you mentioned, a lot of ideas have been mentioned. I would say for my part i think the Federal Reserve works well.
