grows/shrinks?

Respuesta :

Answer:

grows

Shrinks

Explanation:

A deficit is when government spending exceeds income from taxes. When there is a deficit, the government issues debts in the form of bonds and bills to cover its deficits, so government debt increases when deficit occurs.

A surplus is when the income of government from taxes exceeds its spending. When there's a surplus, the government can retire some of its debt.
