bernanke said the unorthodox policy is working to boost the economy, even though unemployment and inflation both remain too low for comfort. the fed chairman also pushed back against critics who say the central bank is partly responsible for record-setting food prices around the world. those critics say the fed's low interest rate, easy money policies are weakening the dollar, which exports inflation. but bernanke said fast growth in emerging markets is causing prices to rise, and if those countries don't like that, they can adjust their economic policies and exchange rates. he dismissed any suggestions the fed is at all responsible for the economic stress contributing to the unrest roiling the middle east. >> food in egypt is priced in egyptian pounds, not in dollars. if the dollar is weaker, the egyptian pound is stronger. so clearly, what is happening is not a dollar effect. what's happening is a growth effect, primarily in the emerging markets, which is creating this tremendous demand for commodities. >> reporter: the fed chairman also gave one of his strongest warnings yet on the seemi

well, your--your art to date has been unorthodox, in the view of some. would your film work be the same? do you have a vision of film that might be different from what other people are doing currently? you know, it would probably be in line with a lot of the ideas and thoughts and feelings that have gone into my own work, you know, into my photographic work. and so it would not be so off-base, you know. but it would be film, which is different. but you also make precious objects. that is, you make limited editions of photographs. and when piss christ became a controversy, people thought it actually was a work, an object in three dimensions they would see. and they were startled to see a photograph. when you look at a technique or a medium, is it something for you that is changeable in film from photography-- in intention--as well? would you take us in a new direction or dimension through film? i'd certainly try, of course, you know. definitely. i--i find that--you know, i don't create too many art objects, but i have. and even though they will not, you k

there are some more unorthodox points of view that you will find. i think you will find an extraordinary level of candor, where i talk about things like social security and medicare. i want to give a summary of some of the salient points i think are most critical in understanding what is in this book, why i wrote it, and then i will be happy to answer your questions. in politics, we call? -- we call them "q&a" and that usually stands for questions and answers, but here it's not -- stands for questions and avoidance. [laughter] the issues we face in this country are extraordinarily complex, and often the answer to dealing with them are not easy, but they are simple. it is necessary to back away and the through a macro lens, and ask ourselves is there a common sense principle we could apply that would make sense out of some of the challenges and the issues that we face. in each of the chapters, why i have done is create a subtitle. for example, the first chapter, i talk about the most important form of government being a father, mother, and children.
