Microeconomic Influence and Governments' Budget Constraints
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing the implications of increasing budgetary restrictions on
government at all levels. The effects of greater accountability and still-increasing budgetary
restrictions is that governments are expected to operate more as businesses. A business can
cease to exist if it fails to serve its customers and make sound economic choices for its own
operation, a fate unlikely for government agencies. However, the trend remains toward
greater microeconomic influence in government operation. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Negating Supply and Demand
[ send me this paper ]
A 2 page paper evaluating the statement, "prices ought to be equal to marginal cost." Without the provision of equal access, public goods can all too quickly become club or even private goods that have been provided at the expense of all taxpayers while not being available to all taxpayers. Prices need to be equal with marginal costs so that the public entity neither loses in or inordinately profits from either the provision or the maintenance of the public good. Otherwise, the good can become exclusionary and therefore not a truly public good meant for the benefit of all taxpayers. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Neo-Liberalism in Australia’s Social Support System
[ send me this paper ]
Before the mid-1990s, public policy was based on a welfare state in which the government was viewed as the answer to all societal ills. For example, in the circumstance where a person was without employment, that person would be assisted by the government with financial support. This changed with globalization, the end of the Cold War and the global market economy. Emulating their new fiscal outlooks, governments began applying “fiscal restraint” to all government policies and programs, which has become one of tenets of the neo-liberal discourse.
