The Kennedy–Johnson Tax Cut

Martin Prachowny

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The 1964 Kennedy–Johnson tax cut is often cited as the single most successful application of Keynesian stabilization policy. The author challenges this orthodox historical view by exposing the haphazard planning, simplistic economic theorizing, irreconcilable numerical projections, and partisan political influences on the Council of Economic Advisers.
