I lost all respect for odolvlovo with his comment ^^^^

Since you obviously know more and better than Yellen, why aren't you running the Fed?

+1. I was skeptical of Yellen, but she has said a few things that make me tentatively respect her. Also, though we might disagree on certain things, she came to her point of view through a lot of experience and knowledge. Might she be wrong? Absolutely. That being said we should consider what she has to say carefully.

My main problem with her is that she continues to cite the CPI as a measure of inflation, which I do not believe is accurate.

How would you describe the key differences between Yellen and Bernanke? Kinda surprised Larry Summers withdrew. Maybe he was too vocal and Yellen was more "safe"

I'm not really sure. I'm not a Fed fan so I tend to ignore it most of the time. It's just that Yellen has said some things that make me think she's not as far out of line with what I believe.
