You almost have to laugh at how stupid"" thibgs""??? have gotten...really?

Googled thibgs...got a rude response. hahahahahahaaaaappppfffftftftftftft....aaaaaa.

For the 5th time in 4 years I am moved to quote the great clown, Red Skelton: "There's a limit to intelligence, but no limit to stupidity."

I am not laughing when the country once issued shovels as part of work programs.

Well, I've heard of the "throwing your money into a hole" expression.
Me dino never thought I'd see idiots do it for really real.

Enough of my hard earned money goes down the rat hole of taxes that I will not volunteer to waste more.

Sell him short? He's been openly advocating the big spending at explicitly twice what Clinton wanted.

Statism and collectivism are a result of accepted philosophy, not entrenched attitudes of 'special interests'. Trump said nothing in the entire campaign on behalf of principles of limited government and the rights of individuals. It was all demagogic 'make America great again' with 'deals'. He is another pragmatist, to the extreme, with implicit statist-collectivist premises. Yet hordes followed the 'man on the white horse' out of frustration and wishful thinking.

Well, the problem is one of entrenched attitudes among a whole lot of "special interests. The Federal system of control has been there since the 30's. With state governments all over the map one would do a 2 lane road that meets up with a 6 lane one and go "oops". I would not sell the guy short yet.

He wants to expand Federal funding of 'infrastructure' where it should be kept limited at the state and local level. That is bound to create more boondoggles, corruption, empire building, debt, and pressure for more taxes. It's another example of his lack of understanding of the proper function of government and why the answer to today's problems with government is not a "businessman" who wants to run the government as if it were a business he knows something about as races off in the wrong direction. And supporting his "projects" with government funding and coercion is of course not new to him.

I won't get on that bus just yet, I am not sure Trump know exactly what he is going to do, other than probably an infrastructure bill that is way overdue, and will be way over spent...the only way to correct that is to have a financial police who actually do their jobs and root out the corruption and shoddy cheating that always seems part and parcel of a government program...

Digging holes to nowhere: The true meaning of "shovel ready jobs". Yet here we go again, back to what Ayn Rand called the "monument builders" with Trump's public "infrastructure" binge as he turns government into his personal tax-funded construction company because it's all he knows.
