Public goods, like national defense or infrastructure, are a prime example where resources are allocated by the government to meet societal needs.


Redistribution of Income (B): Taxing high-income earners more and potentially using those funds for social programs is a way to redistribute income and reduce inequality.


Stability Function (C): The government can influence economic stability through various measures, including managing aggregate demand. This might involve stimulating demand during recessions or curbing it during inflationary periods.

Employment Generation (D): Subsidies for new businesses can incentivize their creation, potentially leading to more job opportunities.
