What are automatic stablizers?
Automatic stabilizers are stabilizers that adjust the economy automatically without the intervention of the congress. An example of an automatic stablizer is taxes.
In an expansion, progressive tax increases the tax paid by citizens and in a contraction, tax paid is reduced and this increases disposable income.
