Economic Stimulus: How do automatic stabilizers work?
Automatic stabilizers are features of the tax and transfer systems that tend by their design to offset fluctuations in economic activity without direct intervention by policymakers. When incomes are high, tax liabilities rise and eligibility for government benefits falls, without any change in the tax code or other legislation. Conversely, when incomes slip, tax liabilities drop and more families become eligible for government transfer programs, such as food stamps and unemployment insurance, that help buttress their income.

produisent leurs effets surtout du côté des taxes
"Automatic stabilizers work mainly on the tax side and on unemployment benefits"
"... ... produisent leurs effets surtout du côté des taxes et des allocation chômages"
There are two sides in this story:
- on one side is the active population and what purchasing power is available to it in total: when the total salaries go down, there is an increase in employment benefit that is dampening the fall in purchasing power, so there's an in-build stabilising effect. (=> "automatic stabilizers")
- on the other side (implied, maybe mentioned somewhere else in the ST) is the State budget, where the impact is not the same: when employment falls, there is more to pay in employment benefits, and less money collected through taxes to pay for it - no stabilizing effect on that side, but a rapidly growing gap to fill.
BTW “taxes” is extremely vague; probably from the rest of the ST it’s clearer which taxes is this text about.
