WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - A new study says that if Hillary Clinton is elected then her proposals will strengthen the U.S. economy and create millions of jobs.
According to Moody's Analytics, Hillary Clinton's economic proposal would oversee a 'somewhat stronger U.S. economy.' The conclusion was reached after assessing her policies on taxes and government spending, foreign immigration, and the federal minimum wage.
The study expects the 'low- and middle-income households' to receive maximum benefit from Clinton's plans, as their taxes would not go up and would enjoy benefits of higher federal spending and economic growth. 'High-income households pay much more in taxes under Secretary Clinton's policies.'
Moody's Analytics expect Clinton's Presidential term to would create 3.2 million more jobs than expected under current policy.
GDP growth would also increase to an annual average of 2.7%, from the current forecast of 2.3%.
Moody's Analytics is an independent research group. The lead author of the report on Clinton is Mark Zandi, who supports her presidential campaign, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics.
