Answer to Question 1

Income redistribution may have many public benefits. It generates collective psychological benefits by making us feel better about ourselves. If it eliminates or reduces hunger, then disease may be reduced as well. There may be lower crime rates. However, income redistribution also suffers from the free-rider problem and the drop-in-the-bucket problem. Individuals can benefit from the drop in poverty even if they have not contributed. In addition, poverty is a huge problem and one person's contribution will likely have little effect.

Answer to Question 2

Producer surplus is the excess of the amount received from the sale of a good or service over the cost of producing it. The producer surplus is measured as the area under the price and above the supply curve over the entire quantity sold.
