“Reagan Revolution,” the Fed, and Terrorism

Ronald Reagan and Federalism Federalism: a system where power is shared between the states and the national (federal) government Ronald Reagan’s policies had an impact on the relationship between the federal and state governments. The conservative political philosophy of President Reagan prompted a reevaluation of the size and role of government in the economy and society of contemporary America.

President Reagan and conservative Republicans advocated for tax cuts: people pay less taxes transfer of responsibilities to state governments less federal government control (Antifederalist?) reduction in the number and size of government programs and regulations (for example, social security) appointment of judges/justices who exercised “judicial restraint”: judges should hesitate to strike down laws unless they are obviously unconstitutional strengthening of the American military.

The “Reagan Revolution” extended beyond his time in office with the election of his vice president George H. W. Bush in 1988 the election of a centrist Democrat Bill Clinton in 1992 & 1996 the Republican sweep of congressional elections and statehouses in the 1990s the election of George W. Bush as president in 2000 & 2004

What are the roles that government plays in the United States economy? The Feds What are the roles that government plays in the United States economy?

The Fed The Federal government has the ability to influence the United States economy. It bases its decisions on economic indicators such as Gross Domestic Product, exchange rates, inflation, and unemployment rates.

Federal Reserve Prints the currency Makes monetary (money) policy decisions and controls the supply of money and credit to expand or contract economic growth

President and Congress Make fiscal (government income) policy decisions and determine levels of government taxes and spending The government regulates the economy

U.S. Responses to Terrorism What role has the United States played in a world confronted by international terrorism?

United States responses to terrorism The United States formulates domestic (at home) and diplomatic (abroad) policy in an effort to confront international terrorism. Since 9/11, America has heightened its security at home. The Patriot Act: made it easier for the government to monitor American citizens Why the name “Patriot” Act? Diplomatic and military initiatives. Since 9/11, we have fought 2 wars against terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan. Could we see a 3rd soon?
