There has been a great debate as to whether government spending on welfare has any relationship with the size of a country’s GDP[2]. As such, this research is meant to demystify the situation. The purpose of carrying out this research is to examine any underlying correlation between the government spending in welfare of the
underlying theme of differences of opinion related perceptions of costs and benefits associated with public expenditure programs. In this course, three of the lessons that were closely connected were cost-benefit analysis, public expenditures related to social insurance and income maintenance, and expenditure programs for the poor.

ethnicities in a country leads to trust and in-group bias, which points to the differentiation in welfare state spending. I analyze two countries that have varying percentages of ethnicities and different sized welfare states. Denmark has an extremely large social welfare state, and a very small amount of ethnic diversity. Brazil, on the other hand, has high ethnic diversity with a very small welfare state.
