How would a proponent of Supply-Side Economics suggest you end a recession?
The easiest answer to this is to listen to the policies that
Newt Gingrich is proposing to implement if he were to win the
Presidency. You could also see what Milton Friedman has to say
about the issue. There are numerous videos of his lectures on You
tube. To put it in real modern terms, you could look at the
policies attempted by Ronald Reagan in 81-82, but keep in mind he
was working with a Democrat Congress which, agree with or not, help
back many of his ideas, as well as George W. Bush's policies with
his Tax rates changes in 01 and 03 but again not perfect as the tax
rebates he sent out would fall under Demand Side policies.
In the simplest of terms, Supply siders would get out of a
recession by reducing all barriers of production to a minimum,
avoiding using deficit spending greater than a common +3% or GDP,
and assuming that jobs created from said policies would boom the
economy. Another example to look at would be the economic policies
of Napoleon in France between 1799-1803 and surprisingly enough
maybe Lenin with his New Economic Policy right after the Russian
Civil War ended in the early 20s following his War Communism.
We can learn a great deal from History. Unfortunately, we are
currently employing demand side economics of Keynes and FDR to try
and pull us out.
