Agreed, Wig. This is why we can very state simple things instead like "Increased government spending increases GDP because governmental spending is a component of GDP". That's not theory, it's definition. :-)

Colin, Agreed!
The question then becomes.... Does this increase in GDP actually have a positive effect on the taxpayer??
My thought is that since the government cannot spend the money wisely (let alone account for it all), the answer is no. But, I agree that this is my subjective opinion.
