Pump priming is the action taken to stimulate an economy, usually during a recessionary period, through government spending, and interest rate and tax reductions. The term pump priming is derived from the operation of older pumps; a suction valve had to be primed with water so that the pump would function properly.

تنشيط الاقتصاد / تشغيل المضخة لجذب الأموال
“” is a common metaphor for using government tax and spending to try to boost the economy into a higher level of functioning.
The origin of the metaphor refers to pumps used to extract water from wells, which were more widespread before most people had indoor plumbing. The basic idea was to pour a bit of water into a mechanism to make it possible to pump water out.
