Examine the graph of GDP growth where in the graph for the US government be most likely to raise taxes where did most likely to decrease taxes explain your responses by describing what the government hopes to achieve with their fiscal action

The U.S. Government is most likely to raise taxes on personal income, and is most likely to decrease taxes on corporate income.

Explanation:

This is a trend not only in the U.S., but in most developed countries. It has been argued by economists that personal income taxes are more effective at raising revenue than corporate income taxes.

Besides, high corporate income taxes can affect consumers and employees by making goods more expensive, and making hiring more expensive too, raising unemployment.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
