The Government Can Borrow the Money

Friday, September 11th, 2009


The government can raise the necessary funds by borrowing them – by selling government bonds to the public, banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment funds and other financial institutions. By doing this, the government can, in effect, “mop up” savings that are not being used for capital investment and inject them back into the spending stream as government spending.

Automatic Stabilizers

Friday, August 28th, 2009



 Automatic Stabilizers

As noted above, certain types of government expenditures, such as unemployment insurance and welfare, tend to wise automatically during recessions, as unemployment rises. In addition to this, many of the government’s tax revenues, such as those from income taxes, profits taxes and sales taxes, tend to be depressed by slower economic activity during recessions. With government tax revenues depressed and expenditures rising, there is an automatic tendency for the government’s budget to go into a “deficit” as a recession develops. This budget deficit will then help to counteract the recession automatically, which is why such government expenditures and tax revenues are called “automatic stabilizers”.

Increases in Government Expenditures

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009



 Increases in Government Expenditures

We have seen how increases in government spending can raise the level of aggregate demand and help to lift the economy out of recession. Traditionally, governments have used public works for this purpose, building roads, bridges, parks and public buildings when the economy was slack and the construction industry was particularly depressed. Some programs to increase government spending, such as public works projects or special relief or temporary job programs, must be planned and set up, which creates delays in their implementation. However, there are other types of government spending, such as unemployment insurance and welfare payments, which tend to rise automatically when the economy slips into recession, thus providing automatic support to the level of aggregate demand.
