The government infrastructure “investments” are future liabilities that only empower the government.
Well.... it COULD be an asset... if you’re planning to sell the country.
Which does appear to be in the works.
“What really happens with the money spent on ‘infrastructure’?”
There is a Las Vegas mafia-like casino skim at every level the money passes through. What’s left gets divvied up amongst “connected” contractors who have greased the appropriate politicians. Then finally union workers get the remaining crumbs and their dues also funneled to democrat politicians. At least that’s the way it works in Chicago.
I remember Obama’s “shovel ready jobs”. From what I could see, all the money spent in MA was spent on big signs that read “Paid for by the Obama Administration”. It wasn’t clear what was paid for, since there was rarely any evidence of infrastructure work being done.
Money is fungible.
Three guesses.
Hint: None involve civil engineering.
I suspect some of it will be used to purchase hunter’s ‘artwork’.
Bkmk

One only rents it.
Kinda like the Oprah show: “everybody gets some!”. First the BigGuy gets his cut, then everyone else who supports this crappola. It is gonna run out just like the UN’s Food for Oil program — billions put into the program and hundreds of millions of $$ went into the pockets of people related to officers in the UN. That is the purpose of all such — redistribution to elites.
The Froggies waay back had a solution to this sort of corruption. Perhaps a post card to every CongressCritter showing a drawing of the device used would make the point.
“Infrastructure investment” is hiring a bunch of overpaid government employees to oversee nothing happening by design. Most of the funded money goes toward payoffs and bribery to political cronies and allies.
The money goes from the mayor to his buddies, and those he is in the bag for.
After Obama’s trillions the only things I ever saw was the federal building in Honolulu get remodeled and 10 miles of highway resurfaced.
10% goes to the big guy. 45% goes to bureaucrats. 45% goes to “studies. Uh Oh. It’s out of money and over budget.
Where did the money disappear the last time during the obama Biden crime spree?
