Business and the Regulators in a High Inflation Era
Washington questions business confidence as stock declines reflect rational reactions to shrinking returns on capital. In 1966 the average rate was 13.4 percent, 9.2 in 1976, with profits shrinking and assets overstated due to inflation. Feldstein estimates $20 billion in exaggerated profits. High taxes, environmental mandates, and social obligations divert resources, reducing investment, productivity, and international competitiveness amid a Carter administration seen as inflationary.
