Respuesta :

Automatic stabilizers are government programs that exaggerate the ups and downs in aggregate demand without legislative action. By reducing the ups and downs to help the demand and supply of products, the government tries to create balance within the economy. Automatic stabilizers work so that the government doesn't have to intervene each time something is needed to help the demand.
