Are you hearing any talk about raising the inflation target to 3%?
Right now on the hill its kinda hard to describe because its yes and no across party lines. The biggest talking point that you hear is how 2% is just not going to happen this year and to think so is nuts. I feel like people are concerned that if they go to 3% that they wont be able to slow it down further. Forward-looking I think 2% is possible in a couple of years but right now this year I think people would be thrilled for it to hit 3% and stay there
