    B) government spending and taxes that automatically increase or decrease along with the business cycle.

    Explanation:

    The two most common automatic stabilizers are: income taxes and unemployment benefits.

    When the economy is strong, people make more money, and income tax revenue automatically increases.

    On the contrary, when the economy is weak, or in recession, people earn less, and more of them are unemployed. Unemployment benefits therefore increase accordingly.
