Hi Reddit historians. I have a term paper due in less than ten hours on the 1970's Stagflation Crisis. We're supposed to talk about the causes, and then analyze the actions taken by the government. Do any of you have a good (.gov or .org or another source my teacher would deem trustworthy) source that I can cite that discusses the US responsive policies? I'm having trouble finding cite-able sources.
Hi - we as mods have approved this thread, because while this is a homework question, it is asking for clarification or resources, rather than the answer itself, which is fine according to our rules. This policy is further explained in this Rules Roundtable thread and this META Thread.
As a result, we'd also like to remind potential answerers to follow our rules on homework - please make sure that your answers focus appropriately on clarifications and detailing the resources that OP could be using.
Additionally, while users may be able to help you out with specifics relating to your question, we also have plenty of information on /r/AskHistorians on how to find and understand good sources in general. For instance, please check out our six-part series, "Finding and Understanding Sources", which has a wealth of information that may be useful for finding and understanding information for your essay.
