Calvin Coolidge

Well, honey, before Calvin Coolidge became president, he was Vice President. And before that, he was the Governor of Massachusetts. So, basically, he climbed the political ladder like a boss before landing in the Oval Office.

He was a lawyer. He also held various positions in the Massachusett's state government, eventually he became governor of that state.

Both presidents were conservative, pro-business Republicans who believed the government should not impede business growth. Harding had more struggles with corruption in his administration than Coolidge: most historians would say that Coolidge was the more effective president. Now that the World War was over, it led to a decade of prosperity (until the stock market crashed); Harding and Coolidge both presided over a strong economy. It should also be noted that both men embraced the new technology of radio (Coolidge especially); Coolidge was a supporter of the major companies that owned and operated radio stations and radio networks.

As governor of Massachusetts, Coolidge fired the striking police officers and hired new officers and gave them the benefits that the striking officer were trying to get. gave them new uniforms frequent days off and higher pay then striking officers. It was considered a setback for organized labor.

Calvin Coolidge was known to have enjoyed reading historical and biographical works. Some of his favorite books included "Plutarch's Lives," a collection of biographies of famous Greeks and Romans, as well as "The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" by Edward Gibbon. Coolidge also enjoyed works by political scientists, such as "The Federalist Papers."

They shared the view that a laissez-faire approach would lead to a prosperous and efficient market system.

The phrase Coolidge's prosperity refers to the unprecedented economic prosperity experienced by the United States during the presidency of Calvin Coolidge. Coolidge was the 30th U.S. president, serving from 1923 to 1929.

Coolidge was a supporter of laissez-faire free market capitalism and was an economic nationalist (following the tradition of conservatives during the 19th century). He supported high tariffs to protect American businesses from foreign competition, massive tax cuts and greatly reducing spending with a corresponding reduction in the national debt, as well as tight monetary policy and low inflation.

President Coolidge was respectable and stable. These were two of his strengths. This enabled him to clean up the corruption of the former administration.

He wouldn't have any views on slavery since he was born seven years after slavery was abolished

Calvin Coolidge was the 30th president of the United States. He was conservative and believed in a small government, which had little say in what businesses did. So, in short, the way Coolidge felt about government regulation of business activity, is that he didn't like it, and he didn't believe in it.

No- His wife ,Grace , lived on for about 24 years after he died.

He was quite conservative and favoured laissez-faire economics. He managed to restore faith in the White House after the scandals surrounding Warren G. Harding's administration, and left with much popularty. He was often seen as representing the middle class and interpreting what they wanted. He presided over a time of great growth and prosperity, and has been praised for his small government policies. Others believe that his failure to regulate the economy would lead to the Wall Street Crash, which would strike less than a year after he left office.

Harding's economic policies are actually a good example of how a laissez-faire approach addresses economic downturns, the downturn here being the depression of 1920-21. According to the Department of Commerce, GNP fell 18% and unemployment had reached 12%. As a point of comparison, there was no point during the depression a decade later when deflation shot so high so quickly.

Contrary to the pleadings of Herbert Hoover, Harding opted not to use his office in the more progressive manner associated currently with Keynesians and prior to Harding's administration with Wilson (aggressive centralized fiscal policies boosting government spending to "prime the pump"). Harding, realizing that the expansion of credit Wilson and the Federal Reserve (actually created during Wilson's administration) had espoused had led to nearly 20% inflation by 1919 only to be followed by equally vicious deflation a year later, actually cut the federal budget from its wartime levels by 72% from 1919 to 1921 and lowered taxes across the board. The national debt consequently fell by $300 million due to the surplus.

It is sometimes thought that Harding favored big business and opposed labor, though there are those who view this as a "cum hoc, ergo propter hoc" fallacy. Labor unions historically keep a low profile during economic downturns and it is unwise for a government looking to foster growth to make it more difficult for the entities doing the hiring to afford their employees. Similarly, tax cuts necessarily result in greater dollar-for-dollar savings for high earners, as they pay the bulk of the taxes anyway.

Coolidge continued along the same lines as Harding, with equally impressive results. It was under his administration that income taxes that had been as high as 65% under Wilson and that Harding had worked to reduce were brought down to 20%. Government spending remained low, and under Coolidge the national debt went from $22.3 billion to $16.9 billion. By his own admission of a decidedly pro-business mindset, his policies' benefits extended to all Americans; so much so that by the end of his administration 98% of the American people paid no income tax at all, yet the government still showed surpluses in excess of $700 million that same year.

Calvin Coolidge, after taking office in 1923, kept most of the policies created under the Harding administration. He intentionally only worked about four hours a day. He believed the government that governed least, governed best. To be fair, the decade of the 1920s is called an era of prosperity. This is because even after some mild economic bumps, the economy recovered rapidly. Unemployment was generally low and quality of living was up. Soon, the economy busted, as it does after many conservative eras. This is because the conservative party views the natural capitalistic cycle of boom and bust as a necessary part of the economy. Liberals tend to regulate the market more to ensure price stability, etc. The result is higher lows and lower highs.

So, Coolidge failed to regulate the market, leading to many people investing they didn't have with the promise of using property as collateral. When the stock market crashed, people lost the money they had hypothetically gained during the era of prosperity. Banks, a major investing force in the economy, failed when they lost the money of their clients. Overall, America was left with very little capital to spend towards redeveloping the economy.
