Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the political spectrum, disgruntled Americans have two things in common: Reaganomics as an economics policy has caused most of their economic problems; Reaganomics as a political strategy has rendered their government dysfunctional. Reaganomics vs the Modern Economy defines the modern economy including the critical contributions of the public sector. It describes the history of political frustrations and resistance to government that led to Ronald Reagan's election. We learn how market forces, not Reaganomics, ended stagflation in the 1980s. But confusion and Reagan's personal popularity continue to produce unworkable policies. The five categories of government economic functions are determined by inadequacies in private sector markets: total market irrelevance, internal market defects, predominant market insufficiency, acute market insufficiency, and general market insufficiency. The public sector must be a component of our modern economy if we are to overcome inadequate employment, the effects of income and wealth maldistribution, the excessive influence of the financial sector, and unaffordable health care and post-secondary education and training. Michael Gilbert shows how we can reduce dissension and division in the country by implementing policies that meet the requirements of our modern economy. The failures of Reaganomics are our guide for what not to do Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a domestic policy advisor to Ronald Reagan, Bruce Bartlett was one of the originators of Reaganomics, the supply-side economic theory that conservatives have clung to for decades. In The New American Economy, Bartlett goes back to the economic roots that made Impostor a bestseller and abandons the conservative dogma in favor of a policy strongly based on what's worked in the past. Marshalling compelling history and economics, he explains how economic theories that may be perfectly valid at one moment in time under one set of circumstances tend to lose validity over time because they are misapplied under different circumstances. Bartlett makes a compelling, historically-based case for large tax increases, once anathema to him and his economic allies. In The New American Economy, Bartlett seeks to clarify a compelling and way forward for the American economy.

Download or read book Reagan and the Economy written by Michael J. Boskin and published by ICS Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reagan and the Economy" is the most comprehensive, authoritative, and up-to-date critique of Reaganomics, the revolutionary economic and political program of the 1980s whose effects are only beginning to be felt. In accessible, non-technical language, Michael J. Boskin describes the Reagan economic program as it was conceived and as it evolved over the first six years of the Reagan presidency, showing its place in the changing world of economic thought. His aim is to dispel the myths about Reaganomics by taking a hard look at the actual data and evaluating the performance of the economy. Many of his findings run counter to conventional wisdom. Boskin's greatest contribution is his analysis of "supply-side" economics, the new school of economic thinking that produced several tax cuts during the Reagan Presidency. He analyzes the effects of these policies in light of the economic conditions and alternatives available at the time, and finds the supply-side tax cuts to be partially successful. These findings form a comprehensive and accurate review of Reaganomics. "Reagan and the Economy" is essential to understanding the political and economic choices the nation will face in the coming years. -- From publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many years have passed but even among the most informed of us there is very little agreement about the accomplishments and failures of Ronald Reagan's economic policies. Politicians, commentators and common voters alike have been arguing about their efficacy and their legacy ever since the inception. The controversy often seems to reflect people's political and ideological stands, rather than a sober analysis of the facts. People on the left of the political spectrum are persuaded that Reagan's economic policies ended up shamelessly favoring the haves versus the have-nots, while "Reaganomics" and "supply-side economics" became bywords for "trickle-down economics", giving more to the rich, cutting welfare for the poor and leaving them to their own devices. Moreover, in this view, Reagan contributed to a large dismantling of the American industrial base, leaving many jobless and hitting hard on blue collar workers and the middle class. This aspect in particular received renewed attention during Donald Trump's successful presidential campaign: interestingly, now it was a "right wing" President who was favouring blue collar jobs, while liberals appeared to have lost any interest whatsoever in working class jobs and increasingly regarded them as outdated and unworthy of the XXI century. For people on the right, Reagan has achieved almost a cult status, more than any other President in living memory. These Republicans argue that Reagan's supply-side revolution revitalized the American economy after a lost decade in the seventies, putting the country back on the path to growth, making fiscal policy more business friendly and reducing the menacing power of the government to affect people's economic decisions. But Reagan was many things to many different people.

A systematic three-step analysis will examine the goals, the actual measures, and the effects of policies within the fields of analysis.

Book excerpt: The socio-economic impact of Reaganomics and its long-run deleterious legacy is documented. The preponderance of data indicate that economic growth was not particularly impressive in the wake of the tax cuts of 1981 or 1986. GDP did snap back to potential but failed to accelerate beyond the rates achieved in prior or subsequent decades. The supposed incentives of supply-side economics failed to materialize. People did not work more, they did not save or invest more than they did before, and the benefits trickled down like molasses and got stuck at the very top of the income distribution. Instead, Reagan's presidency was a watershed in U.S. economic development in the sense that it reversed many of the accomplishments of the New Deal and inaugurated an era in which low-skilled men's wages began a long period of decline, and labor's share of GDP continued to fall. Reagan's true legacy is a dual economy that accompanied the hollowing out of the middle class, a more business-friendly regulatory and oversight framework for Wall Street that ultimately led to the financial crisis, a stupendous increase in the national debt from 30% to 50% of GDP that put it on a path such that by 2012 it exceeded 100%, anti-statism that contributed to the rise of Trumpism, a remarkable rise in inequality that gave rise to an oligarchy, and the benign neglect of blue-collar workers who eventually became Hillary Clinton's "deplorables". Reagan put the economy on a trajectory to ultimately, even if not inevitably, led to the triumph of Trumpism and an economy of malaise.
Download or read book Reaganomics written by William A. Niskanen and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1988 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reaganomics" was the most ambitious attempt to change the course of American economic policy of any administration since the New Deal. In this lively, well-informed account, William Niskanen describes in detail the formulation of the Reagan economic program, the internal debates, the effects of this program on the economy, and the probable future of the Reagan economic initiative. A distinguished economist who served on the Council of Economic Advisers from 1981 to 1985, Niskanen was at the forefront of the Reagan revolution--as a supporter and internal critic, as a participant in and witness to many of the critical decisions that shaped this program. He provides here an authoritative, first-hand account of American economic policy in the 1980s.
