Chapter 2: measuring public sector size

-federal governmental structure= governmental activities take place at several levels:
federal, state, local
-what distinguishes government from private institutions
*elected vs chosen

, *the government has certain rights of compulsion
-government activities fall into four categories:
*the production of goods and services
*the regulation of subsidization or taxation of private production
*the purchase of goods and services, from missiles to the services of street cleaners
*the redistribution of income
-transfer payments= payments that transfer money from one individual to another but not
in return for goods or services
-an important government activity is the establishment of the legal framework within which
firms and individuals can engage in economic interactions
-nationalization= converting private enterprises into government enterprises

-3 ways in which the government subsidizes private production:
*direct payments to producers
*indirect payments through the tax system
*other hidden expenditures
-government credit= a special type of subsidy, government provision of credit below market
interest rates, in the form of low-interest loans and loan guarantees
-government regulates business activity in an attempt to protect workers, consumers and
the environment; to prevent anticompetitive practices; and to prevent discrimination
-government purchases= amounts spent for goods and services made available to the public
-redistributions programs:
*public assistance programs (poor)
>in-kind benefits= public assistance programs that provide payment only for specific
services or commodities
>cash-programs= provide cash
*social insurance (retired, disables, sick etc.)
>an individual’s entitlements are partly dependent on his or her contributions
-middle-class entitlement programs= the main beneficiaries are the middle class, and
benefits are provided not on the basis of need but because the beneficiaries satisfy other
eligibility standards

-an indicator of the governments effect on the economy:
*using the size of public expenditures relative to the size of the total economy
>standard measure of the size of the total economy is the GDP
