The two of the most important parties in the United States of America are the Republican and the Democratic Party. One of the most important controversies between these two parties is the size of the Government. While the liberals believe that a larger government is one of the most important aspects of a democratic society. The conservatives are just the opposite of the viewpoint in the aspect. The Conservatives go on to say that the Liberals do not get what they want to say in all the cases. The larger federal bureaucracy demanded by the Liberals is a way of demanding a new lease of the Federal Government.
According to general beliefs, the size of the Government does not influence the proper working of a country; it is the efficiency of the Government that matters. In the following graph, we will show the expenditure components of GDP, along with all the aspects like consumption and investment. There are also spaces for Government spending.
In recent times, there have been a lot of problems in the Governmental sector with many decisions not going well with the people. Moreover, the economic depression in recent times has been a huge setback for the people. Many people have lost their jobs and many have suffered from cutoffs in payments. People believe that the Government has to take the necessary steps to relieve them from the problems.
As the economic situation gets grimmer with every passing day the tax burden gets heavier on the shoulder of the common American people. Now, they do not care for lesser public service or other things, they want their economy to be stable only for their living. There is no point of discussion regarding the size of the Government, the people want a Government that will care for them and in that case, it may be Conservative or Liberal.
