Question

How do computers benefit the government?

Answer 1

The government is huge. There are 2.1 million civilian employees and 2.87 million in the Department of Defense. There are thousands of applications running in hundreds of agencies & thousands of programs.

Your question is very difficult to answer since a “main computer application” may be vital to one agency and not to the others. At the highest level, it is probably safe to say that Social Security benefit checks are really important since so many millions of people get money from the SSA.

The IRS is vital, both for revenue coming in and revenue going out. Air Traffic Control systems keep 26, 000 commercial flights a day organized and not flying into each other. Weather satellite images & data are critical for travel, shipping, agriculture and many other functions.

The most important government system is probably the one you need at a specific moment for a specific purpose.
