  15. Bottom of Form Top of Form Review the Wk 4 Resources. Analyze1 of the following government intervention programs: Countercyclical fiscal policies (countering economic disruptions such as the housing bubble and the Great Recession) US agriculture support programs Assistance for Low Income Families (choose 1) Housing vouchers Earned Income Tax Credit (including Child Tax Credit) Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Low income healthcare (choose 1) Medicaid (including Children's Health Insurance Program).

Affordable Care Act expansion Social insurance programs (choose 1) Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) Medicare Unemployment insurance Write a 700- to 1,050-word summary of your analysis. Identify the intervention and the market failure leading up to the intervention. Complete the following in your paper: Analyze the arguments for government intervention as opposed to arguments for market-based solutions. Hint: See the information about market failures. Examine who has been helped and who has been hurt by the selected government intervention. Examine externalities and unintended consequences of such intervention. For example, consider whether the SNAP program and health coverage for low-income families result in higher future tax revenues because low-income children grow up healthier and produce higher incomes over their lifetimes. Analyze whether cost of the intervention you selected as a share of GDP or the number of participants is increasing, decreasing, or varies with the state of the economy, based on the cost trend(or number of participants) since its inception or since 2000.

  17. Analyze credible economists’ opinions on the success or failure of the intervention that you chose in achieving its objectives.

Provide at least 2 examples. Why do you think these are important? How have changes to US trade and tariff policies affected US trade with other nations? Consider recent (less than 2 years old) credible news sources to support your response

  20. ============================================== ECO 535 Week 6 Apply Signature Assignment International Trade Summary For more course tutorials visit www.tutorialrank.com ECO 535 Week 6 Apply Signature Assignment: International Trade Summary Top of Form Promoting international trade is not a zero-sum game. It is a win-win proposition; both parties gain from trade. Consider the following:

  21. Tariffs are paid by the citizens of the country imposing tariffs, not by the citizens of the country producing the products upon which the tariffs are levied. The term “trade deficits” is a misnomer. Every country’s trade is always in balance. Trade deficits do not mean the US no longer produces anything to export. The US is the world’s second largest manufacturer and the world’s second largest exporter of manufactured goods. Trade deficits reflect a strong economy. Trade deficits rise during economic expansions and fall during economic contractions. Unemployment falls as trade deficits rise and rises as trade deficits fall. Imports and exports are complements, not competitors. Both are necessary and both contribute to economic growth. Roughly one-third of all US imports and exports is trade between US multinational companies and their overseas subsidiaries. Foreign-owned companies operating in the US number in the thousands and provide directly or indirectly jobs for more than 13 million US workers (roughly, 10% of the US workforce). US trade deficit in goods in 2018 (as a % of GDP) was the same as it was 5, 10 and 15 years earlier. The rise in US goods trade deficit with China has not increased the US total goods trade deficit. It has been offset by reduced goods imports from other trading partners. There is a strong correlation between the rise in world trade and: The rise in world GDP

  22. The dramatic fall in the world’s extreme poverty rate The rise in world life expectancy For every US manufacturing job lost to trade between 2000 and 2010, seven US jobs were lost to domestic productivity improvements. Those seven jobs cannot be brought back from overseas because they never left the US. Write a 700- to 1,050-word evaluation of credible economists’ unbiased opinions on the benefits, costs, and results of current US trade and tariff policies. Complete the following in your evaluation: Evaluate how US trade policy changes in the last 2 years affect global trade activities by multinational corporations. Discuss credible economists’ opinions on the long-term effects of trade and tariff policies changes in the last 2 years. Explain the effect of recent changes to trade and tariff policies have had on your employer, you, or someone you know. ============================================== ECO 535 Week 6 Discussion Effects of Trade Policies and Tariffs

  23. For more course tutorials visit www.tutorialrank.com ECO 535 Week 6 Discussion Effects of Trade Policies and Tariffs Some politicians, labor unions, and special interest groups argue that US trade deficits are harmful to the economy and nations that run large trade surpluses with the US are benefiting from unfair trade practices and agreements. These parties support increasing tariffs on imports, elimination, or re-writing of trade agreements. Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Discuss what credible economists say about the effects that tariffs, changing trade agreements, and/or manipulating exchange rates will have on the total US trade balance. Do you agree with their assertions? Why or why not? . ==============================================
