What's the goal? Full employment or zero inflation?

I'd say full employment would benefit more at this point... US wages had stagnated for the past several decades. Full employment would push those up. And resulting inflation would make paying off the debts much easier for the general population. Additionally, it would probably cause a gradual crisis of confidence in USD as a global reserve currency, so US would have an incentive to redesign it's economic structure into a more coherent form. Commodity prices would shoot up though, that would be a major negative.
