Reminds me of a story of the American economist who went to visit India in the 1960s to look at infrastructure projects. They took him out to a work site and saw 1000s of men with shovels digging a trench. The economist said “why do you have so many men doing what one man can do with a tractor?” to which the official said “you misunderstand. This isn’t a public works program. This is a jobs program”.

Might as well have them dig up land mines along Route 66.

Absolutely! Great example.

Imagine having one’s family dangling at the whim of these two idiot politician-barkers.

You think Georgie Stephanopoulus let’s this on his network?
