Fiscal policy is only necessary when monetary policy is already as expansionary as possible.
It has been 30 years since there has been a significant tax reform, and the Tax Cuts and Jobs Bill that recently passed is certain to impact everyone -- from individual taxpayers to business . The new law will foster an investment climate and boost business competitiveness. In addition, the law may prove to be a potent tool to lead Indonesia to become a developed nation by lauded the Omnibus Law on Job Creation as a major reform endeavor to make Indonesia more competitive and support the country’s long-term aspirations of. Reduce the corporate income tax to 25 percent and allow all businesses to fully expense capital investments. These reforms would boost GDP by percent over a decade, creating million jobs. Tax reform that does all of this will truly make America great again through higher wages, more jobs, and untold opportunity. This piece originally appeared in The Daily Signal More on This Issue.
