I am trying to measure the impact of fiscal policy on economic growth. My dependent variable is real GDP growth of the US and my independent variables are average marginal tax rates, federal tax receipts as a share of GDP, and various government expenditures as share of GDP (R&D, infrastructure, health, education, etc). I have annual observations from 1929-2013. Is there any other solution besides finding instrumental variables?.
