Tea Party Economics By David Smith “The government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.” -President Ronald Reagan

How it works The idea behind Tea Party Economics is to spread the word about their beliefs about government spending and taxation through rallies, and protests. They believe that the government has grown out of control and that it is becoming unstable.

Historical Conditions Largely started in 2009 Bank bailouts under George W. Bush, high levels of government spending, and taxation.

Leaders The Tea Party does not have a central leader. Instead they have a group of people in almost every state that share the same views and try to spread the word in their own region, and in their own way.

Does it still have Value? Yes because what they are protesting like high government spending and high taxation is still happening to day.

Flaws They want to eliminate national debt but by eliminating the debt the government would have to raise taxes And they want to protect free markets but by deregulating business

How it has Evolved At the beginning the theory was just about the government spending and the taxation problem. It has now grown and its views have expanded from strictly government spending and taxation to issues like protecting the free market

Connection There are some similarities between the Tea Party movement's beliefs and Adam Smith's theory of Laissez Faire. Where they both believe that government should not impose regulations on businesses.
