The Role of Government Subsidies in Increasing Consumption and Economic Growth in Efforts to Reduce Poverty in Indonesia
Keyword(s):
This study examines the role of government subsidies in increasing consumption and economic growth in poverty reduction efforts in Indonesia. This study uses secondary data from world banks and is processed by regression using the moving average autoregression method. We find that subsidies without empowering the poor in contributing to the economy only increase public consumption without reducing the number of poor people. Where more and more subsidies are given, it increases the number of people living in poverty line with an income below 3.2 USD per day.
