The Economy in 2014
Council of Economic Advisers
December 16, 2014
Overview
1
The Economy’s Progress in 2014
• Jobs: By November, 2014 was already the best year of job growth since 1999.
• Wages: Much of the pickup in job creation in 2014 occurred in higher-paying industries, and
overall wage growth continued to exceed inflation.
• Deficit: The deficit as a share of the economy has fallen by about two-thirds, and the FY2014
deficit was below its average over the past forty years. This is part of a broader economic
rebalancing that sets the stage for more sustainable growth in the years ahead.
• Health Care: Employer health insurance premiums grew at a rate tied for the lowest on record,
consistent with the lowest health care price inflation in nearly half a century.
• Energy: The United States is leading the world in both oil and natural gas production,
contributing to a roughly 40 percent drop in oil prices over the second half of the year. At the
same time, solar energy is up tenfold since 2008, while wind energy has increased threefold.
The Challenges that Remain
• Jobs and Wages: The labor market is not yet fully recovered—further reductions in long-term
unemployment and faster wage growth are needed.
• Household Finances: Household finances vary widely across the population, and more must be
done to ensure the benefits of a strengthening economy are widely felt.
• Global Economy: Growth is slowing in many of our key trading partners, requiring a renewed
global emphasis on pro-growth policies.
Overview

Key Policy Steps Contributing to the Progress We Have Seen
• The Recovery Act and Subsequent Fiscal Measures: The United States has come further in its recovery than
most other advanced economies around the world, in part because of the President’s aggressive policy
response that included the Recovery Act, the payroll tax cut, and about a dozen additional fiscal measures.
• Response to the Financial Crisis: Even when it was not popular, the President took the necessary steps to
recapitalize the financial sector, rescue the auto industry, and reform financial regulation.
• Affordable Care Act: Changes in the health care system, in part due to the Affordable Care Act, are creating
major savings for households, businesses, and the Federal government.
• All-of-the-Above Energy Strategy: In addition to the energy boom, the United States also made great strides in
energy efficiency, contributing to a 10 percent reduction in carbon emissions from 2007 to 2013—the largest
absolute emissions reduction of any country in the world.
• Catalyzing Technological Innovation: The President signed into law the most sweeping patent reform in
decades, made significant investments in research and development, and will nearly double the amount of
wireless spectrum available for mobile broadband.
• Reducing the Deficit: The Budget Control Act, the Affordable Care Act, and returning to Clinton-era tax rates
for upper-income households will contribute to nearly $4 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade.
Key Policies to Support Further Progress
• Investing in Infrastructure
• Reforming the Business Tax Code
• Common Sense Reforms to the Immigration System
• Expanding Overseas Markets for America’s Goods and Services
• Investing in Education from Pre-School through College and Training
• Raising the Minimum Wage

Total employment has risen by 2.65 million in the first eleven months of 2014, already totaling more jobs
than in any full calendar year since the late 1990s. The economy is adding jobs at a rate of about 2 percent
per year, also on pace for the largest percentage increase in any calendar year since the late 1990s
The Unemployment Rate Has Fallen Much More Rapidly than Expected

This mostly reflects a pickup in consumer spending, a continued solid pace of growth in
business investment, and reduced fiscal drag at the State and local levels. Federal fiscal
drag rose as a result of the sequester in 2013 but has eased in 2014.

Consumer Sentiment Recently Reached the Highest Level Since January 2007

This year’s gains in consumer sentiment likely reflect improving income and
employment expectations, the decline in gasoline prices, and the fiscal certainty secured
for much of the year by the late-2013 Ryan-Murray budget agreement.

The Economy in 2014

  • 1. The Economy in 2014 Council of Economic Advisers December 16, 2014
  • 2. Overview 1 The Economy’s Progress in 2014 • Jobs: By November, 2014 was already the best year of job growth since 1999. • Wages: Much of the pickup in job creation in 2014 occurred in higher-paying industries, and overall wage growth continued to exceed inflation. • Deficit: The deficit as a share of the economy has fallen by about two-thirds, and the FY2014 deficit was below its average over the past forty years. This is part of a broader economic rebalancing that sets the stage for more sustainable growth in the years ahead. • Health Care: Employer health insurance premiums grew at a rate tied for the lowest on record, consistent with the lowest health care price inflation in nearly half a century. • Energy: The United States is leading the world in both oil and natural gas production, contributing to a roughly 40 percent drop in oil prices over the second half of the year. At the same time, solar energy is up tenfold since 2008, while wind energy has increased threefold. The Challenges that Remain • Jobs and Wages: The labor market is not yet fully recovered—further reductions in long-term unemployment and faster wage growth are needed. • Household Finances: Household finances vary widely across the population, and more must be done to ensure the benefits of a strengthening economy are widely felt. • Global Economy: Growth is slowing in many of our key trading partners, requiring a renewed global emphasis on pro-growth policies.
  • 3. Overview 2 Key Policy Steps Contributing to the Progress We Have Seen • The Recovery Act and Subsequent Fiscal Measures: The United States has come further in its recovery than most other advanced economies around the world, in part because of the President’s aggressive policy response that included the Recovery Act, the payroll tax cut, and about a dozen additional fiscal measures. • Response to the Financial Crisis: Even when it was not popular, the President took the necessary steps to recapitalize the financial sector, rescue the auto industry, and reform financial regulation. • Affordable Care Act: Changes in the health care system, in part due to the Affordable Care Act, are creating major savings for households, businesses, and the Federal government. • All-of-the-Above Energy Strategy: In addition to the energy boom, the United States also made great strides in energy efficiency, contributing to a 10 percent reduction in carbon emissions from 2007 to 2013—the largest absolute emissions reduction of any country in the world. • Catalyzing Technological Innovation: The President signed into law the most sweeping patent reform in decades, made significant investments in research and development, and will nearly double the amount of wireless spectrum available for mobile broadband. • Reducing the Deficit: The Budget Control Act, the Affordable Care Act, and returning to Clinton-era tax rates for upper-income households will contribute to nearly $4 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade. Key Policies to Support Further Progress • Investing in Infrastructure • Reforming the Business Tax Code • Common Sense Reforms to the Immigration System • Expanding Overseas Markets for America’s Goods and Services • Investing in Education from Pre-School through College and Training • Raising the Minimum Wage
