One of the ways that the government can become a consumer is that in its construction projects, they are dependent on manufacturers of cement, gravels, and others. There are still lots and lots of examples of this. Then, a way that it becomes the producer is when it lets the citizens pay for all the permits. They produce the permits and actually earn money from it. They use this money for different projects.
