Public expenditures can also be financed through the pricing of semi-public services, distinct from the fully public services provided to citizens. In addition, public-private partnerships can also be an effective way of financing public spending by prioritizing the public interest. Moreover, if the state has underground resources, as in the case of Norway, it is possible to provide public services to citizens without taxation and pricing.
