The History And Status Of Children's Allowances: Policy Background For Children's Savings Accounts, Jami C. Curley, Michael Sherraden
The History And Status Of Children's Allowances: Policy Background For Children's Savings Accounts, Jami C. Curley, Michael Sherraden
Center for Social Development Research
Children’s allowances, a common feature of twentieth century welfare states, are cash grants to families with children. The concept of a government-provided monthly cash benefit to foster income security for all children has never had widespread political appeal. This report traces the history of children’s allowances in other nations to see what can be learned about child support policies.
The U.S. Trade Deficit: A Misleading Economic Indicator, Murray L. Weidenbaum
The U.S. Trade Deficit: A Misleading Economic Indicator, Murray L. Weidenbaum
Murray Weidenbaum Publications
The U.S. trade deficit is the most misleading indicator of economic performance in our statistical tool kit. More often than not, bad news for the economy is good news for the trade deficit, and vice versa. In 1992, the economy was in recession and our trade deficit came down. One year later, the opposite was true. When we look beyond the short-run gyrations of the trade balance and the business cycle, more fundamental, longer-run problems do involve the trade deficit. Indeed, it is a symptom of a more basic economic imbalance.

New World Order And A New U.S. Policy Toward China, James C. Hsiung
CAPS Working Paper Series
While domestic politics is divided between Congress and the White House, generally along partisan lines, President Bill Clinton’s al-out engagement policy toward China, announced shortly after he began his second term in office, is aimed at fostering a Sino-US partenship for the twenty-first century. Below, I shall explain that this policy came at the end of three separate policy reviews conducted since Clinton’s first term. Here, though, I would like to note that rationale of the new China policy is in keeping with the requirements of the new world order, to meet the challenge posed by the three attributes identified …
Recasting The Role Of Government To Promote Economic Prosperity, Murray L. Weidenbaum
Recasting The Role Of Government To Promote Economic Prosperity, Murray L. Weidenbaum
Murray Weidenbaum Publications
No government in the world has an agency with the mission of depressing the economy or accelerating the rate of inflation. Yet, many government actions - especially taxation, government spending, and regulation - have those undesirable effects. The paper focuses on government regulation of business, where the costs are especially insidious, and what can be done to reform this regulation. Government decision-makers often forget the fundamental fact that individuals and private organizations have tremendous capability to deal with the shortcomings of a modern economy on their own. Relying more heavily on private initiative moves us closer to a free society …
