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.
Infrastructure is now new government departments to further manage our lives and that will need to be funded until THE GREAT COLLAPSE.
Funny you should mention that. I actually talked to the company that made those signs. They won the government contract to produce them. They got $1800/sign. They were a made out of one sheet of Marine grade plywood. Then painted with a stencil and a back round color. At the time the retail cost of this plywood was about $50/sheet.
These signs were put all over the country wherever one of these “shovel ready” jobs was being down.
