Why the government spending multiplier is different form the tax multiplier?

The government spending multiplier is different form the tax multiplier from the top of my head is because the government spending total effect ripples off. That is if government spending increase then the total income increases. When total income increase, consumption increases, when consumption increases total income increases further (as consumption is a factor of total income), and this pattern is carried forward. This is the the multiplier effect, such that an increase in government spending's final impact on income is much bigger than its initial increase. The tax multiplier on the other hand, has a much smaller effect than government spending. This is because tax is only a portion of the consumer income. That is, if there is a tax cut, consumers only save a fractional amount (specifically 1-MPC) of a tax cut. As a result of the smaller boost in spending form ma tax cut, the ripples/multiplier effect of a tax cut is much less than an increase in government spending.
