This note attempts to measure the effects of aggregate government expenditure on GNP growth and monetary policy in a growing economy. A version of the standard St Louis model is used for empirical estimation. Related effects were also estimated by means of South Korean data for the period 1970-1988. The findings, inter alia, support the position that government bondholding is regarded as an asset, not a future tax burden.
