Government and The Economy
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that discusses the effect of government policies on the American economy. The writer argues that while many aspects of Keynesian economic theory are still applicable today, examining the effects of the global marketplace shows that this picture is rapidly changing, which means that Keynesian policies and tactics no longer work quite like they used to in past decades, and this limits the effect of government policy on the economy.

Government Spending As A Percentage Of GDP
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing the 1998 disappearance of the federal budget deficit and the possibility of linking government spending to growth of GDP. Linking government spending to GDP would result in total chaos within the government and in all of the programs on which it manages to spend so much. While it is true that government spending increases have trailed increases in tax revenues based on constant or lower tax rates, there is never a guarantee those revenue increases will continue. So far, economists have not been able to agree even on the reasons for the long period of economic growth, much less how to ensure its continuation. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
