The use of government spending and taxes (the federal budget) to influence the level of aggregate demand and thus the performance of the economy is called “fiscal policy.” To stimulate a sluggish economy with increased aggregate demand, we have seen that the government uses a budget “deficit,” with government expenditures in excess of tax revenues. A natural counterpart of this would be to use a budget “surplus,” with tax revenues greater than government spending, to combat inflation. Since inflation is basically caused by aggregate demand rising faster than output can rise, a budget “surplus” can help to ease inflation by depressing the level of aggregate demand in the economy. This and other anti-inflation policies will be considered in more detail. The third possibility regarding fiscal policy would be a “balanced budget,” in which government expenditures and tax revenues would be equal. Such a budget would be appropriate when neither unemployment nor inflation was considered unacceptably high, as the economy would not benefit from an adjustment to the level of aggregate demand.
