Obamanomics vs Reaganomics

Dr Richard W Rahn / 10-09-2010
Last Friday, it was reported that economic growth was only 2.4 percent in the second quarter of this year – far below what the Obama administration had forecast. Yet the administration and its supporters continue to be in denial about the fact that their policies are not working. Psychologists refer to the refusal to change [...]

Big government stops growth

Dr Richard W Rahn / 26-08-2010
Do you think more government spending helps economic growth or harms it?

If you answered A, you have a strong brain and [...]

Fixing the US Economy

Dr Richard W Rahn / 29-01-2010
The U.S. has served as the primary engine of global economic growth for decades, but its recent failures now depress global growth.  The Obama administration and Congress have been doing all the wrong things – but not all is lost.  The forces of economic sanity seem to be making a [...]

Global debt bomb

Dr Richard W Rahn / 18-12-2009
The question is often asked:  “What happens if governments continue to pile on more and more debt?”  We are beginning to get an answer to that question as the markets are reacting to the Greek government’s unwillingness to make the hard choices necessary to put its fiscal house in order.              First a little background.  Eurozone [...]
