The use of government spending and taxing by Congress in order to influence conditions in the macroeconomy is called fiscal policy. When government expenditures exceed net taxes, a budget deficit exists. When government expenditures are less than net taxes, a budget surplus exists.
Keynes recommended the use of expansionary fiscal policy when the economy experiences a depression. According to this analysis, the government can cause aggregate demand to shift to the right by decreasing taxes taxes or by increasing government spending.
