Talk:Fiscal policy

message: I added the stub category for this article thinking it needs extensive work.  I suggest that we set up this article similar to that seen in the article monetary policy.  
I hope to add my own touch when i get some spare time.

thread_title:  Dr. Faia's comment on this article 

message: 1. Wikipedia’s wp:manual of style#Apostrophes leads to Apostrophe#Use in forming some plurals, which says “For groups of years, most style guides prefer 1960s to 1960's”.
2. Consol in the financial context is spelled just as the Wikipedia link: consol. Take a look at [] to see that “console” has no financial meaning.
3. The sentence “Fiscal policy is perceived to be significant due to functions that it carries out.” has no meaning.
4. In the added section “Fiscal policy and economic growth”, most of the section doesn’t say anything about fiscal policy. The remaining two sentences say “In less economically developed countries the government spending into infrastructure is prevailing, which explains positive impact of growth. When there is a lower fiscal transparency, taxation has a negative impact on growth due underdeveloped tax systems. Here “is prevailing” in the second last sentence is unclear. The last sentence is unclear as to why an underdeveloped tax system would cause a negative impact of taxation on growth. Furthermore, this section cites just a single pdf article with no indication that it has ever been published in a peer-reviewed place, so it’s not a reliable source.

message: Starting off a wiki page on fiscal policy with a section on the debate about the use of fiscal policy as opposed to monetary policy is not a neutral way to introduce people to what fiscal policy is. First a section what it is, what its methods are historically. Then in a later section look over different ways it is used. Then in a section after that you can talk about the historical shifts that happened about using fiscal policy in a keynesian way, to stabilize employment levels and reduce the impact of recessions, to a more monetarist/neoliberal way of relying more on inflation-targeting efforts, aka more on using the central banks base interest rate to influence the rate of inflation. 2003:C7:F712:4F34:D53D:3B3E:473E:E7A4 (talk) 20:18, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
