Compare the policy prescriptions of Keynesian, Classical, and Monetarist economists
What will be an ideal response?
Keynesians believe that without assistance the economy would almost never be at full employment. They prescribe activist fiscal and monetary policy to drive the economy to full employment. Classical economists believe the economy is self-regulating and will always tend towards full employment. Their main policy initiatives center on removing tax created disincentives for growth. Monetarists call for low taxes and consistent money growth because Monetarists believe that recessions are the result of fluctuations in the quantity of money.
