Economics discussion: state of the economy, recent monetary policy, the Fed

b.      Is the Federal Reserve more concerned about high inflation or the possibility of a recession? Or, is the Federal Reserve more concerned about other issues? If so, what are they?
c.      What is the stated direction of recent monetary policy? What policy actions have the Federal Reserve taken to confirm that direction?

I tried to answer these questions, by going to the Federal Reserve Web site http://www.federalreserve.gov
