  • This video lesson will introduce the use of fiscal policies by a government aimed at expanding or contracting the level of eocnomic activity in the nation. Changing the amount of government spanding and taxation can influence several macroeconomic variables, such as employment, price levels and the level of output. When should a government alter the level of taxes and spending it engages in? This lesson will introduce two circumstances under which fiscal policy may be used to promote the achievement of various macroeconomics objectives.

    This video was really informative, thank you! I've been given a project to "Consider whether it would be appropriate for the British government to focus on using fiscal policy to expand demand, in order to promote economic growth in the United Kingdom." How best do you think I could answer this?

    in liberal economics, does the government not interfere in economic life? therefore this does not apply to the ideal liberal economy? thanks

    Jason, What do you think of Obama's outlook, raising tax rates (& supposedly tax revenues) whilst also increasing government spending simultaneously? What in the world is that supposed to achieve in regard to increasing aggregate demand and lowering unemployment?

    You don't have to increase taxes to increase government spending. You can borrow the money, called "deficit spending", which increase the national debt instead.

  • @JasonWelker

    Given your logo, I suspect I know your position on the matter. The taxes Obama hopes to raise are on the highest income earners, who have the highest average propensity to save in the economy, meaning that much of the increase will reduce savings, not consumption. This way, savings (which is a leakage, contributing little to economic activity), is turned into spending, contributing to employment through investments in the economy's infrastructure. This is not Obama's outlook at present, however.

    yuh what the hell is a discretionary and non discretionary BOIIIIIII

    • @abbieyi
      @abbieyi 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      boi discretionary is when congress creates a new law or regulations to change AD trough tax and spending. For example, if there is recession, gov has to shift AD to the right to bring back to equilibrium, so they will decreaase tax and increase spending. Non-discretionary is already existing law or regulations that prevents inflation or recession. For example, unemployment benefit is an example of non discretionary regulation, because if unemployment rises, people spend less, thus bringing AD down. However, because of unemployment benefit, gov spend more money bringing the AD back up. Understood??
