For the UK the figures are 38.273% for 2018 and 50.56% for 2010. The former can be seen at https://www.imf.org/en/Publications/WEO/weo-database/2019/October/weo-report?c=112,&s=GGX_NGDP,&sy=1980&ey=2024&ssm=0&scsm=1&scc=0&ssd=1&ssc=0&sic=0&sort=country&ds=.&br=1 and the latter at https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/exp@FPP/GBR . But the former table also has an entry for 2010 which is 44.468% not 50.56%, so they are clearly measuring different things. I'm not sure what the difference is, possibly the former is central government expenditure whilst the latter includes local government expenditure. Quantropy ( talk) 14:15, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
The net is now calculated wrondly. It should be Revenue DIVIDED by Expenditure instead of Revenue MINUS expenditure. -- 95.24.70.237 ( talk) 05:57, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
There needs to be a better definition of how any government, (which primarily depends on the economic activity of private industry and the taxation revenue they generate) could be responsible for some percentage of GDP (government spending as a percentage of GDP) how can a government be responsible for say, 20-40% of GDP? This isn't clear 199.119.235.190 ( talk) 00:41, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
Would be nice to know what kind of financial metrics the average country, in terms of which country the average person lives in, experiences. Smaller countries have much more volatile metrics, and far outnumber the larger countries, and alter the perceived distribution of real world typical values that are relevant to the "average person". 2605:59C8:179:2010:A95E:6CB6:EF17:22A0 ( talk) 14:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
