Socialism garantees money for some business.

When our local post office needed to repave their 5 car parking area you would have thought that they would have a local contractor do the job. Instead of the local contractor 10 miles away we got the contractor out of Detroit (70 miles away)

When I asked why they did that the postmistress said that she suggested the local company but federal rules dictated that they get a minority owned company to do the job.

In the end it cost several times as much and took nearly a week to do what the local company could have done on a Saturday afternoon.
