More Gridlock, Please | Michael D. Tanner | Cato Institute: Commentary: "We know from history that during periods of divided government, which tends to lead to gridlock, government spending increases by an average of less than 2% annually. In contrast, under unified government with cooperation rather than gridlock, spending grows by an average of more than 5%."
