Lastly, Bill, I’m going to give you a little food for thought.
It’s probably beyond you but it is my one and final try.
If you want to ask me whether the Apollo missions, or the interstate highway system, or other such undertakings (those two at least were arguably beneficial) were public or private PROJECTS, then yes, I will certainly agree they were publicly (or governmentally) directed, overseen, administered, whatever.
But, you poor sad fool, if you ask if the funding behind them was public or private, OF COURSE I will tell you it was private.
Bill, where do you and your kind think the government’s money comes from? Do you really think (like Obama) that the government somehow generates a profit? A profit that it then invests?
Or do you think (as Obama also does, and the CP too) that all wealth is actually the government’s by definition and the wee bit that people like me manage to hang onto would actually be better held and spent by self-appointed wise men like you?
Good lord, man, I don’t know how you lost what little money you had, or whatever else on earth happened to you to embitter you so, but the fact is that the government doesn’t fund or finance or spend a damned dime of its own.
Try sleep on that one, old boy. Maybe the reality of it will...dawn on you.

Au contraire, muy little mental militia midget:
Matt 22:19-21
19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax.” They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, “Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?”
21 “Caesar’s,” they replied.
Then he said to them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
NIV

I have no interest at all in spending, or doing anything else with, your “wee bit” - though I will share the observation that it is clearly bigger than what's supposed to be between your ears.
[yes, I will certainly agree they were publicly (or governmentally) directed, overseen, administered, whatever.]
And why was it necessary for those projects to be publicly administered - and funded? Why couldn’t private enterprise do that?
Water water everywhere and not a drop in your brain, ehh Whitey?
