Budget deficits are not particularly affected by the business cycle, they are affected by taxation and spending.

These changes produces an increase in the deficit during recessions and a decrease during booms so acts as an automatic damping of the business cycle (automatic stabilizers). If the deficit is changed by new tax or spending laws it is called discretionary fiscal policy
