I see your point, but that’s a Democrat - Socialist argument, as far as I can tell.

It’s not at all proven that “spending is stimulus”, unless you’re talking about spending on the order of mobilizing industrial war material manufacturing.

The make-work projects that will result in paychecks to the few, will certainly result in that money filtering into the economy, but that money was first taken out of the economy through taxation.

That’s simple re-distribution, which does nothing to spur actual economic growth.

Sorry. No sale.
