Lyrics:
When the economy sinks into recession
Government fiscal policy seeks expansion
This increase in "G" hurts the long-run economy
Private sector's wrecked by the crowding-out effect

When the government borrows funds, real interest rates will rise
For businesses and households, spending is no longer wise
PPC shifts in, while aggregate supply declines
Fewer capital goods means our capital stock dies

With a high real interest rate, the currency will appreciate
Foreigners demand our bonds, the dollar looks great
Our goods now seem too pricey while imports are enticing
As net exports decline, AD down, some jobs will die

When the economy sinks into recession
Government fiscal policy seeks expansion
This increase in "G" hurts the long-run economy
Private sector's wrecked by the crowding-out effect

*This song and video is meant for educational and entertainment purposes only; it is does not necessarily represent my economic and/or political views. It is simply a tool to help students of economics understand the complications of expansionary fiscal policy and the associated arguments.

**As far as the heavy music goes, it contains no regard for musical theory whatsoever. It's just me banging on some drums, wailing away on the guitar, and screaming ludicrously into a mic (with a lot of auto tune).
