In the late 1970s, several countries in Latin America,
notably Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina
had accumulated large external debt burdens. A significant share of
this debt was denominated in U.S. dollars. The United States
pursued contractionary monetary policy from
1979 to 1982, raising dollar interest rates. How would this affect
the value of the Latin American currencies relative to the U.S.
dollar? How would this affect their external debt in local currency
terms? If these countries had wanted to prevent a change
in their external
debt, what would have been the appropriate policy response, and
what would be the drawbacks?

In recent decades, the difference between the income going to the richest and poorest segments of the US population has been increasing.
Since 1979, the after-tax income of the top 1% has increased by more than 250% while those among the bottom 20% have only seen an 11% increase. (Source: Statistical Abstract of the United States, 2010)
Does it matter if some groups have seen their income increase more rapidly than others?
Should the government impose higher taxes on the top 1% to try to shrink the "gap?"
Why or why not?
