Assuming that B0∗ = B0p + B0g = 0, combine the household’s and government’s intertemporal budget constraint to show that the aggregate resource constraint is independent of the specific choice of consumption taxes. That is, show that present discount value of the total demand for goods is equal to the present discounted value of the endowment. Using this insight, show graphically the following three economies and discuss the implications for utility.

(a) An economy in which τ1 =τ2 =0andG1 =G2 =0.
(b) An economy in which τ1 =τ2 >0andG1 =G2 =G>0.

(c) An economy in which τ1 >0andG1 =G2 =G>0
