A government is the organization, machinery, or agency through which a political unit exercises its authority, controls and administers public policy, and directs and controls the actions of its members or subjects. Typically, the term "government" refers to a civil government or sovereign state which can be either local, national, or international.

Such bodies may be called boards of directors, managers, or governors or they may be known as the administration (as in schools) or councils of elders (as in churches). The size of governments can vary by region or purpose. Growth of an organization advances the complexity of its government, therefore small towns or small-to-medium privately-operated enterprises will have fewer officials than typically larger organizations such as multinational corporations which tend to have multiple interlocking, hierarchical layers of administration and governance. As complexity increases and the nature of governance becomes more complicated, so does the need for formal policies and procedures. From Wikipedia under the

The regular expenditure multiplier (assuming a closed economy and lump sum taxes) is: 1/(1-MPC) ==> 10 The tax multiplier (again assuming a closed economy and lump sum taxes): -MPC/(1-MPC) ==> -.9/.1 = -9 As for the gap, according to Okun's law, unemployment will be 1% point above the natural rate for every 3% that output is below potential output. I can't tell from the question what the to assume for the unemployment rate at full employment. To keep things simple I'll use the Beveridge estimate of 3% structural unemployment. If you're using the NAIRU, you would choose 0%. Therefore, 9.5% unemployment is 6.5% above the potential rate. This imples a 19.5% gap between full employment GDP and actual GDP.
