李嘉圖等價Ricardian equivalence)是一種經濟學理論,也稱為巴羅-李嘉圖等價理論Barro-Ricardo equivalence theorem[1]。因為征和发行国债是政府筹措收入的两种主要方式,这两种方式对社会经济将产生何种影响,经济学家们历来对此观点不一争论不休[2][3][4]李嘉图认为,这两种做法对经济的影响是等价的,美国经济学家罗伯特·巴罗Robert Barro)在1974年发表论文《政府债券是净财富吗》进一步阐述了李嘉图的这种观点[5][6]

虽然李嘉图在《政治经济学及赋税原理》一书中提出了这个后人以他名字命名的论点,但他本人似乎对此也存有疑问,因为他在同一书中又写道举债“这种办法会使我们不知节俭,使我们不明白自己的真实处境”[7]
