Reagan economic plan signals shift to private sector growth
The February 18 unveiling of President Reagan's program proposes $53.9 billion in 1982 tax cuts and $41.1 billion in on budget reductions plus $5.7 billion off budget cuts. It emphasizes a smaller federal role, faster depreciation for business investments, and aims to raise saving and investment to spur growth. Critics fear deficit and inflation, but supporters argue the plan increases incentives to work and invest while limiting inflation via money supply controls.
