michael: patrick harker, thank you very much for joining us. the president of the philadelphia fed. reasonably optimistic outlook. jonathan: you see that in the commentary around long-term rates, reflecting the optimism. what you have to do is when we start to see the data, see who is committed to the new framework at the fed and maybe who isn't. certainly at the moment, mr. harker seemingly committed to that new framework. michael: he did say there is level at which he would be concerned. interesting to see how fast market rates adjust once we get the numbers from march in terms of the inflation data. margin april are the two worst month -- march and april are the two worst months. if commodity prices keep going up there will be tough headline numbers. do they blank? -- do they blink? jonathan: this is the opportunity to tease the next show with mohamed el-erian. the reason i bring this up is -- taking the opportunity to draw it out a bit longer. an important conversation about whether they would've adjusted this framework at the federal reser

seems no natural and to what one can assume it is one's right to do and these critics such as patrick and michael give a very acute and accurate diagnosis of the current disorder under which we are living in the nature of the near moral collapse of which we are suffering. i agree completely with the diagnosis. what i dispute is the statement we can find the origin of the malevolence of the founding itself implanted they are now 240 years later manifesting itself in a virulent form. now my book disputes this thesis although the major part of the book isn't about it i ask myself the question, from where did the ideas that made the american founding possible come from? what is the intellectual providence? how does it occur to me and he should rule himself the reason? so i began a hunt for the lineage of those notions that made the american founding possible. now the thesis from patrick and others is that we don't need to go back much further from the enlightenment to find the source of those ideas that's where they came from john locke et cetera. i found that not to be the case and it took me back t

about inflation, philadelphia fed president patrick harker's play down concerns of the recent rise in younger term yields. -- longer term yields. he spoke with michaele seeing pockets like manufacturing, supply, seeing price pressures. what they are not doing, china not passing much of that along to their consumer. the inflation story is complicated. as you said, markets will drop off. they were low months because we were shutting down the economy. we will see a spike in inflation. our guesses for inflation to creep up to 2% and our goal is to have it above 2% this year. we do not see it running out of control. michael: what about the idea that on the spending side people are reluctant to go out? what are you hearing in philadelphia? we are getting more jabs in arms and yet we see personal spending decline in february. patrick: it has been choppy because the virus has been variable. we have had good months, bad months. until we get through this period, we will see a lot of volatility in all of these measures. that makes it hard to read. for me as a policymaker in that kind of situation, i want to hold steady and make sure we get through this. then i

. >> michael, a text from our viewer patrick in nashville who writings, regarding the biden administration'sinternational challenges ahead, what worries me the most is how president trump ignored russia's concentration in the middle east and their unknown influence. russia failed for many years in the middle east, but trump gave them an open door to create future chaos. your thoughts? >> well, you know, here's the thing, i'm a democrat. but i got to say the russian presence picked up in the middle east in 2015 during the obama administration. syria was such a mess. and i don't think it was worth trying to fight russia to push them out. it wasn't worth risking world war iii or conflict between the united states and russia over the syrian civil war which is the main thing that russia has done differently in the last decade in that broader region. and so it's a bipartisan tragedy in the united states. i'm not just going to blame president trump. trump did not have a particularly good legacy to leave in regard to russia. but i'm going to give him credit for one thing. at least he recognized that
