WAS NIXON'S PRICE FREEZE IN 1971 A GOOD IDEA?


[+] serious ballot by RunsWithScissors
ACTIVE Fri Feb 29, 08 - Wed Nov 24, 10

In August, 1971, Richard Nixon imposed a wage and price freeze to control the unacceptably high inflation which was above 4%. It was intended to be on for 90 days, but continued for about 1,000.

Good idea or bad idea?

Voted : Bad idea
His economic people didn't take in nearly all of the prevailing factors when they advised him to make that move. Scary, that I remember that with such clarity...

Typical Republican tool to burden the middle class.

Notice there wasn't a SALARY AND PROFIT control which would mostly affect Republicans.

He wouldn't DARE anger his voter base.
