So I'm taking the Social Studies Praxis next month and I decided to do the practice test for it today. There are 15 economics questions. Here's one of them.
An increase in which of the following is most likely to increase economic growth?
A. Productivity
B. Personal taxes
C. Consumer spending
D. Interest rates
And just for the hell of it, you can answer HERE as well.
ETA: The answer is A.

I would go with C but you can make a case that if they are basing "economic growth" solely on GDP, you could say A

A.
C is wrong because an increase in consumer spending, all else equal, means a lower savings rate. Lower savings rate ---> less growth

Patiently waiting for the supposed correct answer. If they say it's B I'll break stuff.

I went with C. I'm not entirely sure but that's what my gut said.
