Explain the roles of taxation and government expenditure in the circular flow of income

So then the role of Government expenditure is to make sure the money goes back into the economy, if the government were to save the money, the economy will have restriction to grow, if all the money the government creates from tax was put back into the economy by spending in say, Heath, Education, Investment, the economy can grow because then household will spend money from their income to utilise these industries.
