How does the information in the listening passage add to the ideas presented in the reading passage?

Unintended consequences are effects that are not planned when an action is taken. In both cases, the listening passage and the reading passage agree whit this concept. Especially this topic are emphasized whit the government decisions. This example is very good and radical because a decision taken by the government affects a lot of people. Also there are a lot of aspects that are involved in this kind of decision, so that, it is very difficult to predict the consequences or results but it is still more difficult to try to control all of them.

For example, if the government decides to increase revenue, it needs to increase taxes. It sounds easy but in fact, a lot of elements as citizens, companies, banks and etcetera suffer unintended consequences. Citizens has less money to expend, companies not sale the same quantity as usual, Banks star to send much money and it is sure that other unexpected effects occur. Positive effects also can occur because government has money to invest for example services improve, more buildings that people need are build, the security is better between other benefits. Absolutely a lot of unintended consequences happen until it were not the intention of the government.
