1. "I spend a good deal of time Lag theory, much more than the text and I also cover how it applies to monetary Policy as well as just Fiscal Policy as the text would have you think. It is controversial because it suggests that in only cases where business cycles are severe that the government should intervene. The question is why do they tend to do so anyway? I, and many others, believe that it is something to do with political agendas, that politicians sometimes do what is best for themselves rather than the people who elect them. Citing one source should do it as you get to the bottom of this." (In 250 words)
2. "Let's get controversial and remember to respectfully disagree. The Fed is supposed to be an apolitical entity because sometimes they take actions that the President or Congress may not want. This, of course, relates to our last discussion. Anyway, President Trump had at times during his time in office been very outspoken in his criticism of the Fed. I want you to check out what he said and why. Summarize it. Check out how those who disagreed with his actions had to say. Summarize it: Now pick a side: was President Trump justified or should he have remained silent. BE NICE any bashing of the former President or his critics will result in NO CREDIT for this assignment." (250 words)
