According to historians, what was one key outcome of the American economic struggles in the early 1970s?

One key outcome of the American economic struggles in the early 1970s was an increased skepticism of government policies. During this period, the U.S. faced several economic challenges, including rising inflation, unemployment, and the oil crisis, which contributed to a sense of disillusionment among the public. Many individuals began to doubt the effectiveness of government interventions and policies that were intended to manage the economy, as they appeared to be insufficient in addressing the growing issues of stagflation—where both inflation and unemployment were high. This skepticism also extended to discussions about the role of government in regulating the economy and managing social programs, reflecting a significant shift in public opinion that influenced future policies and political discourse throughout the decade and beyond.
