Conventional macroeconomic models suggest that expansionary fiscal policy causes higher interest rates, resulting in crowding out of private investment. In this article, we argue that such models ignore the default risk differential between the interest rates on government bonds and corporate bonds. If expansionary fiscal policy causes an expansion in real GNP, default risk falls on corporate bonds. Our model suggests that if the default risk premium falls, (1) corporate interest rates may fall relative to rates on government bonds and (2) private investment is crowded in. We find some supporting empirical evidence of this effect for the period 1929–1945.

We examine Finnish university students’ fiscal policy preferences and how they are associated with their voting behaviour in two consecutive parliamentary elections, 2003 and 2007. Data is collected through an internet based survey. The study utilises a very large number of responses (N=33320) of students from all disciplines, in all higher education establishments of the country. Fiscal policy preferences are operationalized with questions on budgetary appropriations allocated towards several Ministries. Pair wise comparisons among loyal student voters of all parties and students that changed their vote in the latter election, indicate that several fiscal policies affect significantly the voting behaviour of the population under scrutiny.
