What is Calvin Coolidge known for?
I am known for a period of national prosperity and a return to normalcy after the Great War. My administration focused on fiscal conservatism, reducing the national debt, and lowering taxes. I believed in allowing business to thrive with minimal government interference. This principle, that 'the business of America is business,' guided my actions. My time in office, from 1923 to 1929, is often recalled as the Roaring Twenties, a time of significant economic expansion.
