Financial doctrine having Americans go round the bend? (11)
I believe the answer is:
reaganomics
'financial doctrine' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'americans go round the bend?' is the wordplay.
'round the bend?' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'round the bend' mean this).
'americans'+'go'='americansgo'
'americansgo' with letters rearranged gives 'REAGANOMICS'.
'having' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reaganomics that I've seen before include "American economic ideas and policy of the 1980s" , "Fiscal policy" , "Supply-side theory" , "financial deregulation" , "US fiscal and monetary policies, 1981-89" .)
