Economic Conditions Fiscal and Monetary Policy

Economic Conditions Fiscal and Monetary Policy 
Two important policy goals of the government and the Fed are to keep unemployment and inflation low, while at the same time making sure that GDP is increasing at an average of 3% per year. It is important to have the right mix of policies and that all the variables be timed perfectly.
Assume that the country is in a period of high unemployment, interest rates are at almost zero, inflation is about 2% per year, and GDP growth is less than 2% per year. Suggest how fiscal and monetary policy can move those numbers to an acceptable level. What is the first action you would take as the president? As the chairman of the Fed? Why? What would be your subsequent steps?
