Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Expenditure changes and tax changes can have differential impacts on different regions or groups of people. The legislature determines the spatial distribution of expenditure changes, which can be potentially inequitable depending on their allocation. For example, if a new public works project is only located in a wealthy area rather than a poorer area with greater infrastructure needs, it could be seen as inequitable. Therefore, option A is the best choice. options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not address the inequitable spatial distribution of expenditure changes.
