Suppose there is a sudden decrease in government purchases that causes a shift in aggregate demand from AD; to AD₂. As a classical economist
from Langoria, you explain that the shift in aggregate demand creates
. You also explain that

You note that such a gap leads to an unemployment rate that is
to ▼ As wages change, the
explain that in the long run,
the natural unemployment rate. This means that wages are certain
until Real GDP equals Natural Real GDP. Finally, you
