How does an increase in government spending, as a part of fiscal policy, typically affect the aggregate demand curve?

When the government increases its spending, it usually leads to a rise in aggregate demand. This is because government spending injects money into the economy, which can create jobs and boost consumer confidence. As people earn more money, they tend to spend more on goods and services, which further increases demand. For example, if the government builds new schools, construction workers get paid, and they use that money to buy food, clothes, and other items. Overall, this increased spending shifts the aggregate demand curve to the right, indicating more demand for goods and services at every price level.
