Abstract

This article examines the convergence of state and local fiscal policies among the United States. Based on the standard assumptions of the neoclassical growth model with a public sector, it is shown that state and local fiscal policies have indeed converged over the past 20 years, at a rate substantially faster than real per capita gross state product. These results are contradictory to the Tiebout hypothesis.
