Macroeconmics

During recent political campaigns, taxes and budget policy were key issues. White House budget packages are often designed to stimulate economic growth. From the library or from www.whitehouse.gov, obtain a current summary of government spending and tax legislation signed by the president.

• Would you describe it as "expansionary" or "contractionary"?
• How can American consumers influence decision makers on fiscal policies?
• Explain and discuss if and how this has changed over the past 5 years.
• Post your response on the Discussion Board. Comment on other postings.
