I chose this article because I feel like it is a topic that I have a good grasp on but am still interested in learning more about.

Evaluate the article
The lead section looks good. I think there should be a header in the beginning, though. It overviews the outlay of the rest of the article which is good, but there could be a little more.

The content of the article I think is pretty good. It is a dense subject so it is difficult to include everything, but I feel that the article touches on many of the key points of the subject and spends a good amount of time on each of these subjects. I like that the article is split into different time period groups, which makes it seem less dense and more organized. I also think that it is very readable. One critic is that it is not very up to date, as there is no mention of the impacts of Covid on the economy, or the recent currency devaluation. I think that if I had to edit anything, the current economic status section is where I would look.

I believe that the article is relatively bipartisan and includes facts, not opinions. It can be difficult not to mention the impacts of certain policies on the economy in a non-overly critical way, and maybe that's why there is not a lot of writing on the current economic status.

I enjoyed the images and overall visual effect in the beginning of the article, but I think that towards the end more could be added.

Overall, I think this is a very good article that only needs some minor touchups. The article does a good job of touching on many different topics and providing good sources. I think that if I were to change one thing it would be the modern economics section, which I thought was a bit outdated, and even beyond that, a little small.
