I couldn’t get GPT-5.1 to say this verbatim but it did give me: “Economic momentum is soft while price pressures remain”

The dual mandate is insanely difficult to balance. Low unemployment = higher inflation = higher interest rates to keep inflation low. High unemployment = low inflation = lower interest rates to spur economic growth. High unemployment + high taxes on foreign goods (deadass I paid $28 in tariffs for a fucking $75 item for personal use last week) = high inflation = Stagflation and abandoning dual mandate to focus on one thing
