The government of an economy has a whole lot of role and duties and also a whole lot of responsibilities to play in the life and in the existence of business owners and their businesses . A business cannot become successful entirely without the support of the government because the government are the ones responsible to provide social amenities and environmental commercial projects for the purpose of assisting the transaction and the free flow of business activities between the sellers and buyers . There are so many ways the government can support the existence of businesses but one of the most commonest ways is by providing social amenities such as good roads and other transport system efficient and free for business owners to transfer raw materials and finished goods possibly from where they are being gotten to where they will be transformed into finished goods and also in the case of finished goods they can be transported from where they are produced to where they will be sold either to wholesalers or to the final consumers .
Secondly the government can support producing firms and manufacturing industries by providing subsidies for the purchase of some raw materials . For example in Nigeria there is something known as oil subsidy which is provided by the government in order to subsidize the price of oil so that private oil manufacturing firms can totally purchase oil and maintaining a minimum cost of production to make this oil available for the local market .
