What were two ingredients in carter's failure to achieve success in his domestic policy?

1) President Carter was unable to fix the economy due to slow economic growth, and, a substantial unemployment rate, where 7.3% of the workforce lacked jobs rising to 7.5% due to the winter, and, oil and gas.

2) Carters' anti-inflation policy that proposed a $23 Billion program for the next 18 months. Though the program would increase the spending on job creation, it emphasized more on tax cuts to encourage businesses to raise capital investment.
