  • President-elect Trump has promised changes in economic policies. How well they work and how they will affect us remains to be seen. Here is a look at proposals

The article from Mises Wire discusses the economic policies of Donald Trump, categorizing them into good, bad, and uncertain impacts. Good aspects include Trump's efforts to reduce regulations, which have been seen as a positive step for economic freedom, and his tax cuts which, while not ideal, have provided some relief to taxpayers. Bad policies include his protectionist trade measures, such as tariffs on steel and aluminum, which are criticized for potentially harming consumers and industries reliant on these materials, and his approach to immigration which could negatively affect economic growth by reducing the labor pool. Uncertain effects are noted in areas like infrastructure spending, where the long-term economic benefits versus the costs and potential for increased government debt are debated. Additionally, Trump's fiscal policy, characterized by increased spending, raises concerns about future economic stability due to rising national debt. The article suggests that while some of Trump's policies align with free-market principles, others could lead to economic inefficiencies and distortions.
