More importantly(or so I think) A is not right because expansionary fiscal policies are directed (generally speaking) at govt supporting riskier industry and to promote lending, directly contributing to re-invigoration of the economy. Giving out benefits, by no means achieves this objective.
If I remember correctly the question mentionned DISCRETIONARY. Benefits are automatic stabilizers. Watch out, there is a mistake in the correction on the website: expansionary policy is linked to a higher budget deficit and bigger spending.
