If the full multiplier for G (i.e. ignoring crowding out effects) is = change in G/Multiplier

Then the tax multiplier is = change in T x marginal propensity to consume/multiplier since the mpc is between 0 and 1 the tax multiplier is less. Intuitively it is not difficult to see why, the change tax enters spending decisions through consumption and consumption is dependant on the mpc. Whereas as G affects spending decisions directly - it is a injection into the economy that does not have to work through some indirect source to have an effect on the economy.

What are the causes of crime in Pakistan?

The major causes are unemployment and illiteracy rate but there are some other factors too like lawlessness, fundamentalism, backwardness and double standards prevailing in the society. People around the world always think of Pakistannis as terrorists- we aren't all like that. Yes, I agree that there is a high crime rate, however, most Pakistanni's in the lesser civilised areas of Pakistan suffer from extreme depths of poverty, which is somewhat the main reason for high crime rates.
