Abstract
In Mexico, since the early 80's, neoliberal economic policies are aimed at economic liberalization and
fiscal discipline. Since then it has prioritized macroeconomic stability at the expense of public finance
constraints and increased productive investment that prevent sustained economic growth of the
country. In this context, the Mexican government continues to express that the economy is controlled
by the market, however, in reality is necessary the intervention of State and the implementation of
fiscal policies progresive, allowing restructure the public sector to better allocation and distribution
application of economic resources. The aim is to show the impact of fiscal policy on economic growth
from an endogenous perspective that allows the wedges visible by the repeated use of economic
policies go against the development of production and economic welfare of the majority of Mexicans.
To support the theoretical method, we analyze the main contributions of the scientific literature on the
economic and fiscal, contrasting with statistical evidence to identify the ravages of contemporary
economy and globalization, what reveal the lack of resources to encourage the public sector Mexico and
limited ability to pay tax to economic development, limiting government revenue capacity, hence, arise
a better implementation of productive public spending and increased state intervention in the economy,
as a means to restructure the public sector and generate productive optimal conditions to ensure
productive development and the financial solvency of Mexico. This could be achieved through fiscal
policy with more levying higher revenues and the implementation of progressive spending to encourage
investment in industrial infrastructure, productive development and social spending.
