Mr. Gingrich added in that interview that there are times "when you need government to help spur private enterprise and economic development."

Who wouldn't agree with that remark?

Government "spurs" private enterprise and economic development"? You kidding? Whenever it "spurs" one of its crony clients somebody else gets un spurred.

For "good" or bad, all government does is distort the free market and increase inefficiancies when it plays favorites. And Gingrich is a big fan of playing favorites; why else would he lobby for Freddie Mac?

But I guess youre a big Newtie fan so why should you care that half the crap that comes out of his mouth when he's not under control is liberal-lite inanities

Libertarians. But mostly folks who either don’t have the time, capability, or desire to understand Macroeconomics.

After all, who needs infrastructure?

It depends on how many times and to what extent. Newt likes to count those time with the second hand of his watch from Tiffany’s.
