Z,
Because, only one project in four trillion dollars of federal government spending can be useful. Right.
Think about that statement for a minute.

Our federal budget is $4 trillion. Most people can't even imagine how to spend a billion dollars, much less a trillion.

That should be enough money to fund every "infrastructure" project in America four times over. Yet where is that money going?

That's right, most of it is going toward entitlements. Because we have created an entire voting bloc that is dependent on them, and we have been ever since the New Deal.

This is not "economically stimulative" by any measure whatsoever. Yet here you are telling me that budget prioritization shouldn't matter, despite you advocating the expansion of the biggest welfare state in history.
