“I was very interested in the data showing that most European nations actually increased the size of government in recent years – notwithstanding all the hyperbole about ‘savage’ and ‘draconian’ austerity. That’s why the ‘exceptions to the rule’ in Europe – such as Estonia and Germany – are so noteworthy. While their neighbors are doing the wrong thing, these countries are being at least semi-responsible and trying to rein in the burden of government spending. The same thing is true for state governments, which is why this new map from the Tax Foundation is worth sharing. It shows how fast spending has increased in each state over the past 10 years.”
