Mark M. Zandi, Chief Economist, Moody’s Analytics:
"If someone who is literally living paycheck to paycheck gets an extra dollar, it's very likely that they will spend that dollar immediately on whatever they need - groceries, to pay the telephone bill, to pay the electric bill."

Economic “Bang for the Buck”

Economic Stimulus and Public Assistance
Economic impact models ◦Quantify how money flows through a community◦Assume regional economy is static, until other
forces intervene
Public assistance as economic stimulus◦Best defined as aid to households or persons who had
not previously accessed those services
![Page 12: Public Assistance as Economic Stimulus Ending Hunger in Oregon: 2012 Food Security Summit Gregory Tooman Department of Human Services, State of Oregon](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649eef5503460f94bfed9d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Economic Impact Models: How they work
Public assistance spurs activity throughout the wider economy:
Increased household purchasing power◦Social assistance increases overall household spending.
Economic activity beyond initial point of purchase ◦Economic activity in one business leads to additional
spending by employees of those and other businesses.

IMPACTSDirect Impact
◦More jobs & spending based on increase in demand for goods & services.
Indirect Impact◦ Increase in spending by industries that provide goods and services
to industries directly impacted.
Induced Impact◦ Increase in household spending by individuals employed by
industries directly and indirectly impacted.
NOTE: Indirect and Induced impacts include TAX IMPACT – increase in local taxes due to increased economic activity.

Building a SNAP Impact Model
SNAP reduces the portion of income devoted to food spending, allowing the purchase of other essential goods and services.
SNAP improves overall household income, therefore, overall household spending should be modeled.

Counties for Modeling
Impact Model for Three Oregon Counties: Deschutes (pop 157,733) Klamath (pop 66,380) Malheur (pop 31,313)
Does Rural vs. Urban Matter?◦Yes – Due to “economic leakage” via the limits
of regional purchasing

In Conclusion…Increased public assistance provides local
economic stimulus in the same way as other improvements in economic activity.
Food aid increases a household standard of living by decreasing amount of income spent on food.
SNAP and other forms of food aid can be seen as PURE STIMULUS – they are federally based and do not include state general funds.
