Andrew shank I'm in Econ 200 at 8am on Tuesday and Thursday
taking this class right now is helping me with my other class's. i am in a PS 201class and we have been taking allot about Obama plane it get the economy plan. we had a group talk and i was able to argue for his plan. now i forgot what i said now but it was something along the lines of how dumping tons of money in to the economy is not going to help if it does not go to the right people. so from what we have been talking about in class i was able to sound a little smarter

What were the points that you argued on for/aganist Pres. Obama's "Stimulus" plan?
ReplyDeleteWere the points on:
1) Feasibility of using about 800 billion taxpayer dollars towards specific businesses to stimulate the economy as a whole?
2) What was the opportunity costs thereof (alternative plans that may/may not have worked)?
3) Will this plan work to restore the equilibrium of the market or not? Why?
4) Does government creating private sector jobs stimulate the economy? Cite historical references.
5) Does this interference into the market help or harm the economy?
Thought that this might spark some conversation :)
