Governments use fiscal policy to influence the level of aggregate demand in the economy they are in, in an effort to achieve economic objectives of price stability, full employment, and economic growth. Economists suggests that increasing government spending and decreasing tax rates are the best ways to stimulate aggregate demand, and decreasing spending & increasing taxes after the economic boom begins. Economists argue this method be used in times of recession or low economic activity as an essential tool for building the framework for strong economic growth and working towards full employment. In theory, the assumed resulting deficits would be paid for by an expanded economy during the boom that would follow, is this was the reasoning behind the New Deal. America economy is bound to collapse its only a netter of time.
the US Government is trying use fiscal policy to influence the level of aggregate demand in the economy, in an effort to achieve economic objectives of price stability, full employment, and economic growth and most of all prevent the economy from collapsing next year, unfortunately the economy will collapse because the national debt is not sustainable, best time to take cash out of bank is now.. and buy Gold.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
I wrote a nice post for the GOP pledge thread.
As expected, it didn't go through.
I am tired of the nonsense games here.
Blocked again.
Clean up your act, Cable News Network.
banasy,
After typing out your post, copy it and if it doesn't go thru, re-paste it and shorten it or change a couple of words. It's a pain but it seems to work. 🙂
Good morning@chrissy@banasy@ the Prophet
Yes this is getting to be a nuisance, CNN does need to clean up its act. Where is @Nsaidi?
On the fiscal cliff issue I agree with@ the Prophet. Even if GOP decides, for once , to rise above pettiness how would the big heads get to tackle the deficit? This country is in a fiscal bind.
Unless revnow, you have a mobile phone like mine, without c/p abilities.
Quite often, just hitting the BACK botton on the phone displays the previous message you tried to post. You can then edit that.
