Arnold Weber, director of the Council of Living Cost, says wage and price controls may continue for three or four years after the November 13 freeze expires. He noted possible post freeze restraints and that any control system should be temporary. Muskie proposed a $7 billion consumer tax credit to stimulate the economy and direct benefits to Americans in need, plus tax cuts and a review board after the freeze ends. He urged lowering interest rates and argued for relief to cities, states, and counties instead of accelerated depreciation.
