-If personal income taxes ware increased then private consumption expenditure would
decline. If taxes on corporate profits were raised then net investment spending would
fall.
-Thus government spending would increase and private spending would decrease, with
no effect on national income and employment.
-According to the classical economists the net effect of fiscal policy was that it had
no effect on the level of national income.
-As a result the classical economists felt that the government should balance the
budget, and was not necessary as an active policy participant. The economy
adjusted itself.
-The classical economists believed that economic problems such as unemployment or
inflation were temporary phenomena, and that self-correcting forces would always
counteract this short-run or temporary occurrence. Should the economy fail to adjust
quickly enough to suit society, monetary policy would be implementing to speed the
return to economic health.
