Well let's talk about infrastructure.
As a point of reference for the 1.9 trillion dollar "stimulus" bill.
Back in the 1930s, FDR implemented a stimulus bill that was based in early keynesian (not neo-keynesian) economic theory. It was called the WPA. The WPA was a huge spending bill, equal to 7% of total GDP which is actually less than this one at 9%. For that investment we got 600,000 miles of roads and streets, 10,000 bridges, dozens of airports, libraries, zoos, schools, city auditoriums, and public swimming pools. We are still reaping the benefits of that program today in thousand of US towns and cities. Now far be it from me to endorse FDR, but this is a much better example of what stimulus spending can do, particularly in regard to infrastructure. What exactly are we getting for this 1.9 trillion again?
