To dampen aggregate demand in the economy, the federal government can use a budget surplus, with government expenditures less than tax revenues.
The most likely approach to a budget surplus is for the government to curb the growth of (or even reduce) government expenditures. Such curbs on government spending will be especially helpful in slowing inflation if they reduce the need for the government to increase the money supply to finance its expenditures.
*Because interest payments are one of the cost of doing business, some people believe that the way to curb inflation is to reduce interest rates rather than to increase them through a tight-money policy. While lower interest rates would have a slight cost-reducing effect on business, the easy money associated with lower interest rates would more than offset this by increasing the money supply and aggravating the problem of excess demand. In short, reducing interest rates is exactly the reverse of what is needed to combat inflation.

The use of fiscal policy to stimulate the economy during recessions requires that the government have budget deficits, with government expenditures larger than tax revenues. Where will the necessary money come from to finance such deficits? There are two possible sources of funds to finance budget deficits.

One reason for government borrowing is to finance the purchases of “social assets,” such as roads, hospitals, schools, public buildings and airports. Since these assets are too expensive to be paid out of the current year’s tax revenues, the government borrows the money to pay for them – just as households borrow to buy cars and houses, and businesses go into debt to purchase capital equipment or build facilities that are too costly to pay for out of current income. In each of these examples, the benefits of the asset purchased will be received over a period of years in the future.
It is important to remember that the national debt does not include the debt load of provincial or municipal governments nor should the national debt be confused with the federal deficit, which reflects only the annual increase in the national debt and not the accumulated total.

This concern is often expressed in the words that “any business that ran that way would go broke.” Sometimes the reference is to government inefficiencies and waste, which no one condones, but often the reference is to budget deficits and the rising National Debt. However, the matter is not that simple. Most successful businesses accumulate not only productive assets but also more and more liabilities, or debt, reflecting the money that was borrowed to finance those assets. Businesses do not regard such a situation as bad management; indeed, the acquisition of the assets can be financially beneficial to the company by increasing its profitability.
Just as a growing economy requires more private productive assets, such as factories and equipment, it requires more social assets, such as roads, hospitals and schools. Both private and social assets are typically financed by borrowing, so that the debts of businesses and governments (as well as households) have risen. The simple fact that these debts have risen in no way proves mismanagement on the part of governments or businesses or households in general.
Another problem that contributes to misunderstandings concerning government deficits is that many people confuse a government budget deficit with business “loss.” Some types of government budgets lump together all spending – for “current” purposes such as payroll and “capital” purposes such as airports – so that, whenever social assets are bought or built, the government’s budget shows an excess of spending over the current year’s tax revenues, or a deficit. By contrast, a business’ income statement does not include “capital” expenditures, on items such as plant, as current expenses, and its balance sheet shows its assets as well as its liabilities (or debt). Governments’ budgets generally show the liabilities without showing the corresponding assets.
Furthermore, no business has the responsibility to prevent recessions in the economy, and deficit spending – financed by borrowing – is a proven method of fulfilling that responsibility. Rising unemployment gives the government the choice of either ignoring the problem or using deficit spending to combat it. Considering that the government is responsible for maintaining “full employment,” it could well be argued that good management sometimes requires the government to have budget deficits.

This is a good question – how can deficits, which increase aggregate demand, contribute to economic stagnation? The problem concerning stagnation arises not on the demand side of the economy, but rather on the supply side. If large government budget deficits are financed by heavy borrowing by government, in competition with business borrowing, the result can be depressed capital investment by business.
Business investment spending could be depressed for two reasons. First, the excess demand for the limited volume of savings could drive interest considered appropriate to borrow to buy them and repay the loan in the future.
Another reason for federal government borrowing is to finance budget deficits to combat recessions. Thus, the federal government’s responsibility for minimizing the effects of recessions sometimes requires it to go into debt. Historically, another major reason for government borrowing and increases in the National Debt has been the financing of wartime expenditures. For example, the Second World War added over $10,000,000,000 to Canada’s National Debt.
Each of the above is generally considered to be a legitimate reason for borrowing by the government. However, ordinary operating expenses of the government, such as its payroll, should be paid for by tax revenues. It is not considered to be good financial practice to borrow (or even worse, print) money to cover operating expenses, or to avoid a necessary increase in taxes for political reasons, any more than it is considered appropriate for households to go into debt to pay their telephone or food bills.

If the government were too anxious to stimulate the economy out of a recession, it might use excessively large deficits. This danger tends to be more severe before elections, when the government may be anxious to reduce the unemployment rate quickly before the election. “Another possibility is that government spending may outrun tax revenues (perhaps due to a combination of high government spending and/or unwillingness to increase taxes), causing budget deficits even during an economic boom, when the economy does not need stimulation.
