• Looking at the Issue from a Government's Perspective Long-standing empirical evidence in the fields of public finance and development assistance suggests that the hard question is not how much money is displaced from the health sector, but rather how much money stays. [...]public spending on education, security, and infrastructure are all critical components of governmental efforts to improve well-being. [...]when a government experiences or anticipates an increase in resources (as with any form of aid, including health aid), then making the best use of these resources would generally call for their distribution across multiple sectors.
