    The correct answer is B. The national debt will increase since more money will be spent than the one that comes from taxes. Therefore, the fiscal deficit will increase. Unemployment programs shouldn't be cut, as this would generate even less income, because the population would have less money for consumption, and therefore there would be less taxes to pay.
