Explain why a government budget deficit is likely to stimulate economic growth.

When there is a government budget deficit it means that the government spending is greater than the government revenue, hence there is more money being channeled into the economy. This money can be used to invest in transport or infrastructure and so stimulating economic growth as increased jobs and opportunities arise.
