    This borrowing may have a negative impact by crowding out private investment.

    Explanation:

    When the government goest into deficit spending to stimulate the economy in times when the economy is slowing down, what happens is that the government now demands more loanable funds: it demands a higher proportion of the savings in the economy in the form of government bonds.

    This higher government demand for loanable funds crowds out private investment for two reasons:

    It raises the interest rate, making private investment more expensive. It reduces the amount of loanable funds available for the private sector (because it takes over a larger share of them).
