Inflation is if the government decrees income tax it may lead to higher costs. Or there is high demand in goods with little supply, meaning the price will increase. Also if the government increases income tax it may lead to deflation. This shows how much the government is involved with our money.

This picture shows how the government is spending more money than it has. A negative effect of this is that it put the country in debt.

# data[].attributes.body
This picture is about the fiscal policy. And it has a negative effect because as shown in the picture the country is in a lot of debt because they are using more money than the amount the collected from taxes. So they have to spend their money paying back their debts instead of using the money for the citizens.

This policy is related to taxation. The cause of rising inflation might be caused by the rising price of goods and services. This policy can have a negative impact on the economy because the rise of prices makes taxes go up. This causes the dollar to be able to buy less.

# data[].attributes.body
The policy this is related to is taxation. This policy has a negative effect on the economy because the picture shows that corporate taxes in the U.S. have stayed the same when in other nations they have gone down. This means that businesses in America are paying the same amount of taxes when other nations are paying less. This is a negative impact because if businesses in the U.S. are paying more taxes then other nations, they might want to consider moving their company somewhere else so that they could pay less taxes.

The result of inflation in the U.S. is that prices of objects are increased and the dollar can buy less than what it previously could. I think inflation is closely related to taxation. The government involvement with taxes could increase inflation of the economy.

This image represents how much the US debt grew under each president. This policy is related to taxation and government spending. National debt impacts the economy in a negative way. It lowers national income, there are higher interest payments which lead to larger tax hikes, there is a decreased ability for the government to respond to problems, and there is a greater risk of a financial crisis.

What might cause inflation are rising prices of goods and services in a economy. It could have a positive and a negative impact. Many have caused a negative impact. In this case with he prices of a cup of coffee inflation for coffee is on the lower end.  Coffee has affected the economy, but not as rapidly say like heath care. I say Inflation is similar to taxation. taxes, involving the government it can increases the inflation rate of the economy.

# data[].attributes.body
The fiscal policy is to change the demand for goods and services. A problem of expanding on the fiscal policy is that it will lead to an increase in the size of a government's budget shortage, thus causing the country to go in debt.

The policy most closely related to inflation is entitlement. Inflation is closely tied to the value of goods and services. For example health care is becoming increasingly valuable and expensive. So as the price increases so does the inflation.

The policy that is represented in this graph is a public insurance program that provides health coverage to low-income families. Public Insurance programs positively help the economy because when you give low-income families insurance, they are more likely to go to the doctor sooner rather than waiting and going to much more costly emergency room later.

lower immigration portends big problems because the basic American retirement system — Social Security and Medicare — relies on workers to pay for retirees, and the entire expansion of the work force over the next 15 years will come from immigration.
Lower immigration rates will mean serious funding shortfalls for older Americans.
the low immigration number is so frightening is not really about population growth at all. It’s that the evidence increasingly says having immigrants here makes workers born in the United States more successful.

The image represents the economic policy of raising import tariffs on China. This would have largely helped the economy because it protects American businesses and increases the amount of jobs away from Chinese competition. However, some things produced in America may be more expensive than it was importing it from China.

This picture gives us a clear explanation of what the minimum wage earner, median wage earner, and CEO guy earner make each second of the day. The way this can be represented as a economic policy is that if we raise pay towards workers like minimum and median wage earners they could live just as comfortably as a CEO owner. Sometimes the pay minimum earners earn is not enough to buy a place in certain states and cities.

This picture represents an economic policy because it shows how much social security covers for daily expenses. This graph is a social program and the program can help the economy for states with lower cost of living because that support that they get from the policy covers most of the rent. But in states like Hawaii and California even if the policy covers the rent people still have to pay another half of it plus other living costs.

The Social Security trust fund cash flows and their effects on the budget of the federal government have received considerable attention in recent years. An examination of the long-term constraints facing the trust funds and the federal budget clarifies that under the Social Security system's self-financing framework, an improvement in trust fund finances will not relieve the accumulated debt commitments of the rest of the federal government.

This picture shows the United State's banks profit rate throughout the past 2 years. The national bank has regulatory policies in place that say how much cash can be kept in each bank. This can impact banks and the economy negatively because if too many people borrow money from a bank, then that bank might run out of its predetermined limit of cash it is able to hold, the standards in which were made by the government.
If the economy is moving too slow, then they can lower their interest rates, and businesses will hire more people. However, this can impact the economy negatively if businesses let go their expensive workers and replace them with part-time workers at lower prices, leading to unemployment rates and lower wages.

This policy is called Social Security. It is a social welfare program for people who are 65 and older, disabled, blind, or a survivor. A positive about Social Security is that your income is secured. This means that if you're retired, you will know how much money you have to spend. However, these funds can run out. When the funds do run out, millions of people will have no idea where to get a stable income.

This image represents Social Entitlement Programs. Social Security is a program that promotes economic security in the U.S. It is a program that provides benefits for retirement, disabilities, etc. Social Security can benefit the economy because if the economy gets worse, people under social security can still receive money to keep up the economy.

from working on it, because it will not be done afterwards.

This shows how the interstate travel(red lines) is more spread out from each other, it's harder to travel interstate than it is non-interstate(gray lines) because there's so much more non-interstate travel and the roads are much closer together. If the government spent more on interstate travel, it would maybe benefit people because they would have an easier time traveling state-to-state without having to loop all the way around one state just to get to a certain road that will take them to where they want to go. Investments towards the interstate system from the government could benefit the community because it decreases a business cost of selling to additional markets, and makes it would be easier for marketing to thrive if interstate travel was invested more and was more around the country.

This picture represents fiscal policy. It shows how white Americans have 22 times more wealth than blacks, a gap that nearly doubled during the Great Recession. The main reason blacks and Hispanics did not fare as well during the economic downturn is that home equity makes up more of their wealth than it does for whites. The housing bubble that preceded the collapse pushed up homeownership rates among blacks and Hispanics, who relied more heavily on high-cost subprime loans to finance their purchases.  As a result, the implosion of the real estate market had a more devastating impact on black and Hispanic communities.

The image represents the gender wage gap across all fifty U.S. states. Earning inequalities (regulatory problem) negatively impact the economy.  Women experience significantly lower pay than men for labor, which results in higher poverty rates. This further impacts social policies as poverty directly correlates to the need for entitlement programs like Medicaid. Improvements to the gender wage gap would cut excess spending on social programs (due to less need) and increase U.S. GDP. That is why the federal government enacted the regulatory policy, the Equal Pay Act of 1963. The law prohibited 🤬-based discriminatory wage difference in the same establishment who perform relatively similar jobs.

A minimum wage is the lowest remuneration that employers can legally pay their workers—the price floor below which workers may not sell their labor. Most countries had introduced minimum wage legislation by the end of the 20th century. Minimum wage can help people to make a living in the society so they no need to starve. This help the economy because it secures the life quality of people who aren't rich and could prevent higher poverty rate.

This image or bar graph represents how stressful and bad current business regulations are based on the opinion of smaller business owners. Because it seems to only benefit larger businesses rather than aiding smaller ones as well, this makes the competition between these businesses in the nation more competitive and that leads to many small businesses to lose from the overwhelming requirements. This leads to lower flow of cash going around in the economy, closings of more shops, increase unemployment rates, and more amounts of money in debt.
