Abstract

Using Statistics of U.S. federal budget dating back to the 1900’s the paper provides a test to a proposition in the political science literature stating that a divided government, where the legislative branch and the executive branch belong to different political parties, give rise to worse political budget policy outcomes than would be the case under a unified government.
