American Strategy
AMERICA
REMEDIES for ailing economy
Context of Economy Crisis
American – The world’s largest Economy
The USA is the world's largest economy. However, its share in
world GDP in PPP terms has declined from 23.7% in 2000 to
20.2% in 2010 due to faster growth of emerging economies
as well as the severe impact of the financial crisis in 20082009. Real GDP contracted by 2.4% in the USA in 2009. The
economy has recovered since early 2010 owing to stimulus
measures
Context of Economy Crisis
Early 2010, Business Grows
Early this year, some economists declared
that the cycle was finally righting itself.
Businesses were restocking inventories,
yielding modest job growth in factories.
Hopes flowered that these new wages
would be spent in ways that led to the
hiring of more workers — a virtuous cycle
Context of Economy Crisis
Fears of a second recession
 The American economy, long the engine of
global growth, is once again tilting toward
danger.
 The collapse of the real estate market.
 Despite an aggressive regimen of treatments,
fears of a second recession are growing.
 Signs weaken — plunging home sales, a bleak
job market.
 Investors lose faith in real estate and stocks,
they are flooding into government savings
bonds, keeping interest rates exceedingly low.
Context of Economy Crisis
Government policy makers cannot deliver
meaningful intervention
Nearly any proposed curative could risk
adding to the national debt -a political
impossibility.
Bad economic news has delayed the plans
of the Fed in an effort of seeking a graceful
exit from its interventions.

The Dramatic Expansion of The Debt
 Began in the Bush administration-via large tax
cuts and two wars.
 Creditors like China and Japan might demand
sharply higher interest rates to finance
American spending.
 Inflict the reverse of deflation: inflation, or
rising prices.
 Merchants lose faith in the sanctity of the dollar
and demand more dollars in exchange for oil,
electronics and other items.

Deflation – Why is America afraid of it?
 Falling prices can be good news for people in need of
cars, housing and other wares, a sustained, broad
drop discourages businesses from investing and
hiring.
 Less work and lower wages translates into less
spending power, which reinforces a predilection.
 Against hiring and investing — a downward spiral.
 Deflation is both symptom and cause of an economy
whose basic functioning has stalled. It reflects too
many goods and services in the marketplace with not
enough people able to buy them.

American’s Actions to Prevent Deflation
 Inject credit into the economy.
 Adjusts a benchmark overnight rate for banks that
influences rates on car loans, mortgages and other
forms of creditThe Fed pulled this lever long
ago, and has kept its target rate near zero.
 Stimulate consumers the ability to spend.
 The Fed also relieved American banks of troubled
investments, many linked to mortgages, to give
the banks room to make new loans.
Is The Remedy in Sight?
 Most economists praise the Fed for confronting
the possibility of another depression.
 But the Fed added to the nation’s debts,
provoking talk that it was testing global faith in
the dollar.
 Most economists believe that austerity is the
wrong medicine for the American economy.
 First, they argue, take the medicine and stave
off the lethal threat; then deal with the
collateral problems.
