Introduction
For the benefit of the incoming administration, I submit this report to document, analyze,
and interpret the macroeconomic policy decisions I made as the chief economic policy advisor of
Econland. The purpose of this document is to further our national prosperity by deepening our
understanding of the relationship between macroeconomic policies and their consequences for
our citizens. The report includes a thorough accounting of the major fiscal and monetary policy
decisions made over each of the seven years of my term, as well as an explanation of the
underlying rationales for those decisions and the resulting impacts of those policies.
