The document summarizes the effects of the Great Depression in the United States including banks closing, high unemployment, and mass foreclosures. It then outlines the major programs and reforms of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal which aimed to provide relief, reform, and recovery through initiatives like the Works Progress Administration, Social Security Act, and National Recovery Administration. While some New Deal programs were later ruled unconstitutional or ended, many remained and still operate today such as the FDIC, FHA, and Social Security.

The document discusses the growing problem of government debt in the United States. It notes that the annual deficit has grown substantially in recent years, reaching over $1 trillion in 2010 and 2011. This level of deficit requires significant government borrowing each year. The total national debt held by the public is over $10 trillion. Cutting spending, raising taxes, and economic growth are the three main strategies proposed to address the debt, but each faces challenges. The high and growing level of debt poses economic risks going forward.
Common Myths About the Debt
We debunk several common myths about the national debt. Like deficits are falling; there is no harm in waiting; deficit reduction will harm the most vulnerable; and the debt can be fixed by cutting waste, fraud or foreign aid.

This document discusses a graduated income tax plan proposed for Michigan that would cut taxes for 95% of state residents. Key points:
- The plan would establish a graduated income tax scale to make everyone pay an equal share of taxes based on their income, rather than high-income individuals paying a smaller share.
- Under the plan, a family making $80,000 would save $600 per year in taxes, an 18% cut. More than 4.4 million filers would receive an $830 million total tax cut.
- 89% of business owners would receive a tax cut as well. The plan aims to stimulate economic growth and help small business owners.
- A family making $50,

The National Debt
The document discusses national debt and deficits. It notes that the US national debt was $5.6 trillion in 1999 and $12.8 trillion in 2010. It explains that debt is the accumulation of yearly deficits and surpluses, with deficits added to the debt and surpluses reducing it. The document also discusses "pork barrel" spending projects by Congress and debates around taxation and proportional versus progressive tax systems.

Economic Effects of Stimulus and Debt
The document discusses the economic consequences of government stimulus and growing debt levels. It argues that Obama's stimulus plans increased dependence on government and debt without creating many jobs. Growing debt obligations from programs like Social Security and Medicare will cause total US debt to increase dramatically in coming decades to over 300% of GDP by 2050. Repaying this debt will require tax increases that will significantly reduce the quality of life for Americans.
The National Debt History, Trends And Impact
The document discusses the national debt of the United States, including its current size of over $9 trillion as of 2007, who it is owed to, historical trends, and potential impacts. It notes that total debt obligations including programs like Social Security and Medicare exceed $53 trillion. Much of the debt is held by the public and foreign governments, with foreign holdings increasing in recent years. Rising costs of programs and an aging population threaten to increase the debt to unsustainable levels if not addressed.
Common Myths About the debt and the Facts
The document summarizes common myths about the national debt and provides facts to address each myth in 1-3 concise sentences. It discusses that while deficits are smaller than during the recession, the debt will still grow substantially without action. It also notes that the longer action is delayed, the greater cuts or tax increases will need to be. Additionally, gradual deficit reduction can help the economy rather than hurt it, and past plans have protected vulnerable groups. The debt issues also cannot be solved solely by cutting waste, taxing wealthier Americans more, or relying on economic growth alone.
09 federal deficits and the national debt
The national debt is the total amount owed by the federal government to holders of government securities. It has more than tripled since 1980 as a result of accumulating budget deficits. Approximately 17% of the debt is held by foreign entities, representing a burden as it transfers purchasing power overseas. Crowding out occurs when government borrowing to finance deficits causes interest rates to rise, reducing private sector consumption and investment.
Oak Park Town Hall - June 19, 2017
The Oak Park Town Hall discussed the state budget and recent legislative progress. The state budget funds education, human services, and cuts spending and pensions to save money. Recent laws passed automatic voter registration, protected abortion access, limited cooperation with immigration enforcement, expanded sealing of criminal records, and reformed school funding. The tax increase went to paying pensions and bills, and Illinois' tax rate remains competitive. Pension debt grew as contributions lagged for decades. Officials provided contact information to discuss issues.

The document discusses the growing wage gap and declining unionization rates in the United States from 1947 to present. It outlines national and state level assaults on workers' rights through "right to work" laws and restrictions on collective bargaining. While some anti-union legislation was prevented, other measures like restrictions on teachers and public employees were passed in 2011. The document argues "right to work" laws drive down wages and benefits for all workers.
IGPA Pension Presentation
The document discusses Illinois' severely underfunded state pension systems. It notes that the total unfunded liability is $85.5 billion as of June 30, 2010, and the funded ratio is only 38.3%. Several reform proposals are mentioned, including offering employees a choice between remaining in the current defined benefit plan or choosing a lower-cost defined contribution plan, with the goal of reducing costs and unfunded liabilities over time.

Fiscal Crisis
Most states are facing significant budget shortfalls due to declining tax revenues during the recession. The crisis has led to widespread budget cuts, layoffs, and proposals for new taxes or reliance on federal stimulus funds. Massachusetts faces a projected $5.4 billion budget deficit for fiscal year 2010 due to a $3.4 billion loss in tax revenues over the previous year. Addressing the large deficit will require difficult choices about funding priorities and revenue sources.

This document discusses government schemes in the UK, Ireland, Spain, and Italy that aim to help homeowners struggling to meet their mortgage payments due to the financial crisis.
In the UK, repossessions were up 68% in 2008, and new schemes like the Homeowner Mortgage Support Scheme have been introduced but criticized for high costs and uncertainty around lender participation. Ireland has seen relatively few repossessions and relies on existing industry guidelines and income support. Spain allows unemployed borrowers to delay half of monthly payments for two years but adds more debt, while Italy enables renegotiating loan terms to lower payments. Private insurers like Genworth could play a role in advising on schemes and assisting those who don't qualify for government support

This document summarizes Illinois' fiscal situation and recent budget debates. It notes that while the FY2013 budget was based on one-time revenues, the FY2014 budget maintains the same spending levels. It expresses concerns that this does not prepare for lower revenues in FY2015. The document also discusses Illinois' massive pension debt and underfunding, as well as the state's poor economic growth and job losses compared to other states. It advocates pension reform and policies to promote business growth and job creation in order to improve Illinois' fiscal health.

FIX_HOUSING
This document discusses how investing in housing can help create jobs, attract businesses, and restore the economy. It notes that a lack of affordable and stable housing has negatively impacted many Minnesotans through rising homelessness, higher housing costs, and job losses. Maintaining current funding for agencies that support housing would leverage additional funds and ultimately create over 8,000 jobs and add $1.4 billion to Minnesota's economy while helping families and stabilizing communities.
Financial Burden of Low Income Renters
This document provides a policy analysis and recommendations for Mayor Denis Law of Renton to reduce the financial burden of housing costs on the city's economically vulnerable residents. It finds that 82% of Renton households earning under $35,000/year spend over 30% of their income on housing. The analysis evaluates 5 policy options against criteria of cost efficiency, impact on affordable housing supply, access to amenities, political feasibility, and technical feasibility. It ultimately recommends creating a Renton Earned Income Housing Credit voucher program, which would provide $1 million annually in rental assistance vouchers funded through the Renton Housing Authority's surplus budget. This option aims to minimize tradeoffs by expanding housing options while significantly reducing poverty concentration in the city.
A new deal fights the depression
The document provides information about Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs implemented in response to the Great Depression. It includes multiple choice questions about the goals of the New Deal, why FDR destroyed livestock, how the New Deal was paid for, what the Hundred Days period was called, what FDR closed when he took office, why he closed banks, what created the FDIC, what the CCC did, and how FDR reacted when his programs were found unconstitutional. The questions cover topics such as relief for the unemployed, economic recovery, deficit spending, the Glass-Steagall Act, and the Civilian Conservation Corps.
Monetary Malpractice: Crises and COVID Group 29
The Great Depression was a worldwide economic crisis that began in 1929 and ended in 1939. It was caused by haphazard monetary policies and exacerbated by interventionist policies. The depression was made worse by the Federal Reserve lowering the money supply by 1/3. To combat the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, the US enacted large fiscal stimulus packages and the Federal Reserve pursued expansionary monetary policies to provide liquidity and stabilize markets. These policies sought to increase demand and support the flow of credit to alleviate the economic impacts of the crises.

Ush ch. 23 section 2 notes
Ronald Reagan was elected president in 1980 on a platform of conservative economic policies known as Reaganomics or the Reagan Revolution. Reagan advocated for supply-side economics, deregulation of industries, and tax cuts to spur economic growth. While the recession ended in 1983 and the economy rebounded, the policies led to rising budget deficits and national debt. The Savings and Loan crisis of 1989 saw the failure of over 1000 banks and cost over $200 billion. Reagan appointed conservative justices and supported religious groups in schools. Despite economic problems, Reagan was popular and strengthened the conservative movement.
The New Deal
The New Deal was President Franklin Roosevelt's response to the Great Depression in the 1930s. It established numerous programs and agencies to provide relief, reform the financial system, and stimulate economic recovery. Some of the major programs included the FDIC to protect bank deposits, the SEC to regulate Wall Street, and the WPA and CCC to provide jobs for unemployed Americans through public works projects and conservation efforts. While not all of its policies ended the Depression, the New Deal restored hope by taking bold action and establishing the foundation of the modern American welfare state.

HISTORY SLIDES
The document summarizes the New Deal enacted by President Roosevelt in response to the Great Depression. It discusses several acts passed as part of the New Deal, including providing support to reopen banks, cutting government pay to fund relief programs, and legalizing beer. The overall goals of the New Deal were to provide more jobs, improve the economy, regulate banks, and support farmers. Public works programs were created to generate employment building infrastructure like roads and bridges.
Chapter 25 Roosevelts New Deal
The document summarizes Roosevelt's New Deal programs and the Supreme Court challenges to them. It describes how Roosevelt implemented many new relief programs during the Hundred Days to address the Depression. Critics expressed concerns that the New Deal overstepped boundaries or did not go far enough. New Deal programs continued through Roosevelt's first term, including the Second New Deal. Finally, the Supreme Court ruled some New Deal programs unconstitutional, leading Roosevelt to unsuccessfully attempt to pack the Court with more favorable justices.
Chapter 23 The New Deal
- Roosevelt called on Congress to enact a Second New Deal to further address the ongoing problems of unemployment, low production, and economic suffering from the Depression. This included new programs to provide more federal aid and further stimulate the economy. Many Second New Deal programs, such as Social Security, the WPA, and policies supporting workers' rights, continue to assist Americans today.
Tcad - Results Budget Debate Slides
The document discusses proposals in Congress to address the federal budget deficit that could negatively impact families living in poverty through cuts to important social programs. It provides examples of proposed cuts to Medicaid, SNAP food assistance, child nutrition programs, and more. Advocates argue these cuts would increase poverty and hunger. The document encourages readers to educate themselves and contact their representatives to urge alternative approaches that protect vulnerable populations.
AOF Webinar: Debt Ceiling
The document summarizes the Debt Ceiling Deal passed by Congress and its potential impacts. It establishes a bipartisan committee to cut $1.2-1.5 trillion in spending over 10 years, with automatic cuts taking effect in 2013 if no deal is reached. Many programs are exempt from these cuts, but discretionary programs and entitlement reforms are on the table. The deal could reduce funding for services like nutrition assistance and Medicaid, threatening vulnerable populations. Advocates encourage engaging with members of Congress to prioritize critical social programs in further deficit reduction efforts.
Conservative economic mythology
This presentation debunks several prominent conservative economic myths using facts from the CBO and other highly credible sources.
EuroMAC_Ch15.pptx
The document discusses the financial crisis of 2007-2008 and its aftermath, known as the Great Recession. It covers the prelude of the housing bubble in the U.S., how the crisis spread from the housing sector to the broader economy, the underlying causes such as inequality and deregulation of the banking sector. It also discusses the fiscal and monetary policy responses, reforms to regulate the financial sector, and ideas to prevent future crises.
The Great Rightward Shift: How Conservatism Shifted the Money to the 1%
The document discusses how conservative economic policies since 1980 have contributed to increasing income and wealth inequality in the United States. It notes that the top 1% now receive over 20% of income, versus 10% pre-1980, and own 42% of wealth compared to 24% in the mid-1970s. Conservative policies such as tax cuts that disproportionately benefit the wealthy 1% and weakening of unions have shifted more of the economic gains to the top earners over the past several decades. The rise of conservative media has also encouraged working-class voters to support policies that are not in their own economic interests.
International Human Resources
As an international HR manager of Lehman Brothers, two key challenges during the financial crisis are identified. First, the mass layoffs of workers without proper cause or compensation led to legal issues and negatively impacted the performance and morale of remaining employees. This was due to ineffective HR planning and an inability to identify the optimal workforce levels. Second, an overreliance on a single cost-cutting strategy of layoffs demonstrated that Lehman Brothers lacked strategic flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions. To address future crises, HR must conduct thorough internal and external analysis to develop multiple contingency strategies, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain engaged talent during difficulties.
Alphabet soup notes
This document summarizes several major programs established under the New Deal to provide relief, recovery, and reform during the Great Depression. It outlines the stated purpose and level of success for each program, including the AAA which paid farmers to reduce crops, the CCC which created conservation jobs for young men, and the SEC which was created to protect investors and make the stock market safer. Overall, the programs had mixed levels of success, but many like the CCC, FDIC, and TVA are still in existence today and considered largely successful in their goals of stimulating the economy and reforming systems.
N.Y. State is NOT broke!
Thirty years of growing income inequality, corporate tax cuts and personal tax breaks for the wealthy have undermined the livelihood of working people and set up a state budget crisis which does not need to
exist. We present alternative tax proposals and issue a warning of the ominous consequences of privatization, layoffs and state service cuts for all New Yorkers.
Fairness and The Debt Crisis
The document argues that the current federal budget deficit and debt levels are unfairly blamed on ordinary Americans, who did not cause the issues. It claims the true causes were decades of bad economic policies, including unjustified wars, outsourcing of jobs, tax cuts for the wealthy, financial deregulation, and stagnating middle-class incomes. Resolving the debt crisis requires addressing the underlying economic crisis first through solutions that help, not penalize, average Americans, rather than continuing policies advocated by those responsible for the problems. Fair debt policy should not scapegoat citizens for issues they did not create.

Update on the New Normal 2
This document discusses reasons for slower economic growth in the US as the "new normal" compared to previous decades. It notes factors such as high household, business, and government debt levels; a more competitive global economy; demographic changes like retiring Baby Boomers; stagnant wage growth; cautious corporate behavior focused on financial engineering over hiring and investment; industry consolidation; the impact of technology in eliminating jobs; and income volatility among many workers. The document examines these trends in depth through data and examples to argue the US faces structural economic challenges compared to the post-WWII era.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
