Another part of the initial fiscal response to the Covid-19 recession were checks sent to every adult and child ($1200 per adult and $600 per child). Which of the following is NOT a reason why these checks might have a low fiscal multiplier?

▸ The government borrowing to fund these checks crowds out private investment.

▸ Since many parts of the economy are shut down, households are unable to spend to their checks on additional consumption.

▸ Many households save most or all of the checks rather than spending them because they are afraid an even bigger shock is on its way.

▸ The checks encourage households to buy more from online retailers.
