Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Entitlements are legislated federal government payments that anyone who qualifies can receive, such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Controllable expenditures refer to spending that can be adjusted by policymakers, while fiscal stabilizers refer to automatic changes in government spending and taxes that help stabilize the economy. "Balanced expenditures" is not a commonly used term in economics or government finance.
