KarenMaciel financing exp fiscal policy would result in an expansionary fiscal policy would result in an decrease in interest rates
increasing deficit would result in an increase in interest rates
spending more than revenue (increase deficit) and less amount available to private spending and thus increase in interest rates is inevitable

Inc in interest rates and decrease of the same would offset each other

Fantastic question!!!!
