One group found the primary cause of unemployment in slow growth and the solution in economic expansion. The other f
4、ound the major explanation in changes that had occurred in the supply and demand for labor and stressed measures for matching demand with supply.The expansionist school of thought, with the Council of Economic Advisers as its leading advocates, attributed the persistently high unemployment level to
5、a slow rate of economic growth resulting from a deficiency of aggregate demand for goods and services. The majority of this school endorsed the position of the Council that tax reduction would eventually reduce the unemployment level to 4% of the labor force with no other assistance. At 4%, bottlene
6、cks in skilled labor, middle-level manpower, and professional personnel were expected to retard growth and generate wage-price pressures.
