问题如下:
Which of the following statements regarding to fiscal deficits is most accurate?
选项:
A.Fiscal deficits may crowd out private investment.
B.Central bank has to print money to address deflationary conditions.
C.Higher government spending may lead to lower interest rates.
解释:
A is correct.
Government borrowing may divert private sector investment from taking place and this effect is called crowding out.
考点: fiscal deficits
解析:政府支出增加会产生财政赤字,进而抬升市场利率,打击私人部门投资的积极性,进而产生挤出效应。所以A选项正确,C选项错误。
面对通缩特别是流动性陷阱的状况,央行靠印发货币是解决不了问题的,正确的做法是采用量化宽松的手段。所以B选项错误。
请问C选项为什么不对呢,增加财政支出,财政赤字增加,利率降低
