Should the government use economic stimulus to aid the country during times of recession?

Personally I think Government should assist at times to help business`s but I have no faith in them at all to actually do what is required or would work

Yes, to aid recovery and avoid suffering but with conditions to ensure effectiveness

Yes but only so much as that the debt will not increase beyond 90% Debt to GDP

Yes... by tax breaks for low income and economic aid to disability, carers and elderly (only if they financially need it)

Economic Stimulus is vitally important to ensuring the economy and industry can survive through a crisis -- government spending should be carefully targeted to sectors with reliable returns and those which boost spending by all citizens, chiefly those with the least money to spend.

Yes, but spending on infrastructure that benefits the common good & provided jobs in creating common good assets - like social housing & public transport.

Yes, but get the high income earners to have a specific tax that requires a portion of their funds to be donated to community services and education

Yes. Only for those on incomes of less than $100,000/year.

Yes for people on low income

Depends on why the recession occurred and how large

Stop most spending in general regardless but cut all spending ALL spending during a recession/depression

Yes, but stimulus should go straight to those in lower socioeconomic groups.

Yes, but the economic stimulus must be cut by 50%

Yes, but only by referendum.

Yes, though support for workers to turn their companies into worker-owned and run co-ops

Yes, but only for lower income citizens and business.

Yes but in the form of tax break for low income earners, and assisting those that are most heavily hit by recession.

I’m uneducated

Yes, but I think there should be more public voice on how the aid is used

Provide safety net for low income workers

Yes, combined with Universal Basic Income that everyone gets paid but counts to wards income for the year and gets paid back via tax levels. That UBI can be turned up or down for stimulus. Current stimulus does not work, systems are taken advantage of and its generally unfair.

Yes but only invested in projects that generate an income for the economic recovery, money should not be spent on services and projects that are dead money.
