Evaluate the view that supply-side policies are more effective than demand-side policies in reducing UK unemployment. (25)
Your answer · paragraph 2
Supply-side policies like tax cuts make people want to work more. This means unemployment falls because firms hire them. So GDP rises and the government collects more tax revenue...
L3
14/25 — Level 3. Chain implied, not built. Add: "incentive to work ↑ → labour supply curve shifts right → equilibrium wage ↓ → firms hire more workers."

// Why this exists
A note from Zac.
"I built this because the resources I had as a student didn't work. They told me what to know. They never told me how the examiner wanted me to write it down."
Every chain on this site is one I built and tested for my own answers. Every UK case study is one I used. Every Level 5 phrase came from reading chief examiner reports until I knew them by feel.
The free notes here are everything I'd want a Year 12 to have at zero cost. The A* packs on Payhip are the full system — what I'd give my own younger brother if he was sitting Edexcel next June.
No fake testimonials. No "23,000 students" badge. Just the actual product, written in plain English, by someone who sat the exam himself. If it works for you, the reviews on Payhip are how you tell me.
