I’m probably not the best to ask 😅 but I would say always look at the limitations of whatever you’re talking about. So limitations of policies or the efffects that a certain intervention may have and who it would impact, like for e.g the unintended consequences of fiscal policy on businesses, consumers, the government . Also look at factors like how things might change in the long run maybe if implementing a supply side policy creates jobs will those jobs last in the long run. Other things could be how it affects international competitiveness, real incomes, GDP, current account, inflation etc Those are afew off the top of my head, but I hope that helps.
