In this respect, public sector expenditures for social welfare can reduce private-sector giving for social welfare, offsetting the government's spending on those same causes. Similarly, the creation or expansion of public health insurance programs such as Medicaid can prompt those covered by private insurance to switch to the public option.
Left with fewer customers and a smaller risk pool, private health insurance companies may have to raise premiums , leading to further reductions in private coverage. Another form of crowding out can occur because of government-funded infrastructure development projects, which can discourage private enterprise from taking place in the same area of the market by making it undesirable or even unprofitable. This often occurs with bridges and other roads, as government-funded development deters companies from building toll roads or from engaging in other similar projects.

Key Takeaways The crowding out effect suggests rising public sector spending drives down private sector spending. There are three main reasons for the crowding out effect to take place: economics, social welfare, and infrastructure. Crowding in, on the other hand, suggests government borrowing can actually increase demand.

We have omitted physical capital related to the military or to residences where people live from this table, because the focus here is on public investments that have a direct effect on raising output in the private sector.
An economy with reliable roads and electricity will be able to produce more. However, it is hard to quantify how much government investment in physical capital will benefit the economy, because government responds to political as well as economic incentives. When a firm makes an investment in physical capital, it is subject to the discipline of the market: if it does not receive a positive return on investment, the firm may lose money or even go out of business. If a government decides to finance an investment in public physical capital with higher taxes or lower government spending in other areas, it need not worry that it is directly crowding out private investment.
Indirectly however, higher household taxes could cut down on the level of private savings available and have a similar effect. If a government decides to finance an investment in public physical capital by borrowing, it may end up increasing the quantity of public physical capital at the cost of crowding out investment in private physical capital, which could be more beneficial to the economy.
Education conveys positive externalities—while individuals gain from an education, so does society at large. Educated citizens are more thoughtful voters. A highly educated and skilled workforce contributes to a higher rate of economic growth.
For the low-income nations of the world, additional investment in human capital seems likely to increase productivity and growth. Of course, spending more dollars on education is no guarantee that students will learn more. Despite significant increases over the last several decades in U. Other government programs seek to increase human capital either before or after the K—12 education system. Programs for early childhood education, like the federal Head Start program , are directed at families where the parents may have limited educational and financial resources.
Government also offers substantial support for universities and colleges. In Germany and Japan, about half of all students take classes beyond the comparable high school level.
In the countries of Latin America, only about one student in four takes classes beyond the high school level, and in the nations of sub-Saharan Africa, only about one student in Not all spending on educational human capital needs to happen through the government: many college students in the United States pay a substantial share of the cost of their education.
If low-income countries of the world are going to experience a widespread increase in their education levels for grade-school children, government spending seems likely to play a substantial role. For the U. According to the National Science Foundation, federal outlays for research, development, and physical plant improvements to various governmental agencies have remained at an average of 8.
About one-fifth of U. Investment in physical capital, human capital, and new technology is essential for long-term economic growth, as Table 2 summarizes. In a market-oriented economy, private firms will undertake most of the investment in physical capital, and fiscal policy should seek to avoid a long series of outsized budget deficits that might crowd out such investment.
We will see the effects of many growth-oriented policies very gradually over time, as students are better educated, we make physical capital investments, and people invent and implement new technologies. Practice until you feel comfortable doing the questions.
