Government policies can be developed to work against the problems of unemployment and inflation because government can A. increase aggregate demand to combat unemployment and decrease aggregate demand to combat inflation B. increase aggregate supply to combat unemployment and decrease aggregate demand to combat inflation C. decrease aggregate demand to combat unemployment and increase aggregate demand to combat inflation D. increase aggregate demand to combat unemployment and increase aggregate demand to combat inflation
