When has government ever spent money to make money? That's capitalism something Obama is hell bent on destroying. When the government spends money it never makes money it only spends more money, government should be like a small child and seen and not heard.
Jeez Obama and Biden can't even get on the same page as to what the story is.
America came out of WWII because we were the only industrialized nation that had any infrastructure left to manufacture and produce... then we got complacent and found ourself falling behind when the rest of the world came back online... after we paid to rebuild it.
