Roman Caposino March 6th, 2014 Chapter 18 #1-5 AP Government & Politics When the economy is thriving, the government tends to spend more money.

Generally, voting behaviors of politicians and economic conditions are not always correlated, both at national and local levels. Politicians do not vote within their spending limit sometimes, because they know the federal government will pay for their deficit.

In these governments, the smaller parties will rely on the funds of the central government due to the fact that they cannot tax. An example of a unitary government would be the United Kingdom. A co federal government is one in which the local governments retain power over the whole. One example is the European Union in which each country has control individually. A Federal government has specific duties appointed equally for the national and state governments, an example of which would be the United States.
