How does the corporate income tax influence investment and saving and the real interest rate? Draw a graph to illustrate your answer.

Recent tax legislation reduced corporate tax rates from 35 percent to 21 percent. Proponents of the law suggested that these tax reductions would pay for themselves by galvanizing higher growth and generating fresh revenue for the government.
While the Treasury Department may be relying on dynamic economic models to suggest that deep tax cuts do not add to the deficit, Congress may have to use more cautious assumptions that the Joint Committee on Taxation uses. If these show the tax reductions adding to the deficit, it could create procedural challenges within Congress.

Pick one of 4 questions you wish to discuss.

Discussion Questions
Kouzes and Posner (2017) conclude their book with the idea, “Leadership is not an affair of the head. Leadership is an affair of the heart” (p. 313). How does this idea correlate with Drew Dudley’s ideas in “Everyday Leadership”? [As always, be sure to use specific examples from the video and our readings.]

Using ideas from our readings, explain why you think that people “make leadership to be something bigger than it is” (as Drew Dudley shared in the video)?

How would you answer if you were asked the question of whether you are comfortable calling yourself a leader? [Use ideas from our readings and what you learned in this class this semester, as well as the video, in your explanation.]

Go back to the Psychological Empowerment Instrument (PEI) you completed in Learning Module 2. Remind your colleagues into which ‘profile’ you fit and then share some ideas based on the question, “What have you learned in this course that might help you sustain and build your level of empowerment?”
