الوصف: |
The government of Sri Lanka has constantly allocated a substantial budget to provide free health care, education, and other community services, intending to reduce income inequality. To see whether government spending has reduced inequality, we analyse data from Sri Lanka. We find that public expenditure is ineffective for the policy objective; instead, it increases inequality. |
