pardox is a seemingly absurd or contradictory statement, though, often a true statement. sometimes, there are pardoxes seen in micro and macro activities. it means, an act which is benefical for an individual, may prove to be harmful for the economy as a whole.

eg. if individual saves, his family will be benefitted , but if the whole economy starts saving, it will result in contaction of demand, output, employement, and income. as a result, the whole economy will suffer.

If an individual save more, he adds to his future prosperity if all the people in an economy save more (and spend less), demand for goods and services may decline. Consequently, investment may decline; production and employment level may fall.The economy will be driven towards future poverty rather than prosperity
