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
16
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. Analyze credible economists opinions on
the success or failure of the intervention that
you chose in achieving its objectives. Recommend
whether the program should be continued as is,
discontinued, or modified based on your
conclusions. Defend your recommendation.
Note Use of charts and graphs is encouraged with
appropriate citations. Any charts or graphs

ECO 535 Week 5 Apply World Economies Comparison
Presentation
Research each economy assigned to your Team.
Compare similarities and differences between
your assigned countries/economies and how their
economic, political, and cultural development
since 1992 has influenced their economic growth
and trade competitiveness.
19
  • Use tables and/or graphs to support your analysis
    of the following economic statistics/indicators
    of your two assigned economies through the most
    recent year available since 2009 (the trough of
    the last economic cycle). Whenever possible,
    plot the metric for both economies on the same
    chart.
  • GDP per capita growth over time
  • Inflation rate over time
  • Unemployment rate over time
  • Exports as a of GDP over time
  • National government debt as a of GDP
  • Evaluate the reasons why the economic growth of
    the two economies/countries varied.

20
Analyze how the failure to use value-added trade
measures distorts trade statistics.
For example, Boeing and Airbus airliners, Apple
iPad and iPhone production, and North American
integrated auto and light truck
manufacturing. Examine at least two industries
that have provided each economy a
comparative advantage in world trade. Cite at
least two academically credible sources. Format
your citations according to APA

International Trade Summary
22
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 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
countrys trade is always in balance. Trade
deficits do not mean the US no longer produces
anything to export. The US is the worlds second
largest manufacturer and the worlds 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.
23
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 The dramatic fall in the
worlds 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
24
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
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.
25
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? .
