He’s not talking about government spending, he’s talking about an infrastructure bond fund, i.e. private investors with private money.

So private investors with private money will rebuild the bridges and the interstate and rebuild the airports? Why aren't they doing that now? How do they get repaid?

The income from the bonds duh. You can’t do private infrastructure because the government mafia wants to own and featherbed. They talk about this plan on Varney every single day.

That is just it private business does build our roads and bridges, and public buildings via a bidding process, they also provide our Military hardware, uniforms the same way. It goes to the LOWEST bidder, of course it is a RIGGED process so only a company in a certain congress critters district gets the bid. Even the guards at the post gates are Rent a Guard more often than Military Personnel. They are armed with just 40mm.

Man, they did a total remodel of a very usable Navy Exchange that only needed the leaky roof repaired. But they did not remodel the Pharmacy to make it handicap friendly. Since DOD has MANDATED all Tricare Life retirees over 65 to use the base Pharmacy for daily meds, this has created a big problem, it’s to small to handle electric wheel chairs or walkers. They also built a new large building still don’t know what it’s for, when we had empty ones available that were remodeled after the flood of 2010, our Navy Base got no coverage by the media like Nashville did, the entire south side was under several feet of rushing water. We are on the other end of the state. http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=53035 Serve Pro came in and did the clean up.

Then the year before they repaved a perfectly good Commissary parking lot and did a mini remodel all out side contractors.
