Real World Economics: Fed is insulated from political interference

The article from Twin Cities discusses the importance of the Federal Reserve's independence from political interference, emphasizing how this autonomy allows the Fed to make monetary policy decisions based on economic data rather than political pressures.

The piece also touches on historical examples where political interference in central banking led to economic turmoil, underscoring the benefits of an independent central bank in maintaining low inflation, promoting economic growth, and managing financial crises effectively. The article argues that while the Fed's decisions can be unpopular, its independence is crucial for sound economic policy.
