You mean welfare for states to plug their budget holes from the decreased revenue due to the economic crash of 2008?

oooooh, tons of jobs.. just too many stupid people.. That the new talking point?
It's obvious you haven't been looking for a job. For grins, put in various small towns, various mid size, and various big cities into indeed.com and see what you get.

What does this actually mean? We have to wait for the investors to raise most of the money needed? How much is most?


"but taxes collected from the workers and companies participating in such projects would offset the costs," I have never heard of this as a way to help pay for a project. Workers taxes paying for the project???? So companies make an investment get a tax credit yet their taxes will help pay for it???? What am I missing?

I will answer your question.

Are you living in a bubble or something?
You read something, but don't understand what you are reading.

This is not rocket science.
Millions of people are out of work, and millions of would be tax dollars are not there presently, therefore, nothing gets done.

The government, under a Trump administration, would probably get the ball rolling by initiating work projects through out the country.
Private contractors would be bidding on the contracts, and once secured, would be in charge of the projects being built, and hire workers who then would be paying taxes, which in turn would be used to pay for these projects.

Initial start up cost would be secured by the current tax codes,, bond issues, and private investment.
With new taxes being put into the system by new workers, investors would get paid, and these projects through out the country could move forward.

What part of that do you not understand?

Bob.

It could be structured very much in the way the US raised money in the early years of WW2. Before tax collections and Bonds had a large enough impact.

Every city, town, county and state would submit the projects that they see as most worthy, and then take bids from the private sector. Huge moneys would be needed on a multitude of projects. Much borrowing would be done, and there could be Fed guarantees on these loans as was in WW2 to hasten and secure the process. Tax credits could be used to encourage risk taking by private building industry.

Many more people would then be directly and indirectly employed both locally and nationally. GDP and tax collections would rise. No rockets needed.

Sounds like a plan to me!

It's not a tax problem, it's a spending problem.

The taxes collected on these workers on this project isn't significant since the actual taxes go into the general fund to pay for all the programs big government forces down our throat.

Here's the list on how government can help create jobs
1. Get out of the way

Government doesn't create jobs it creates debt.

Why do you want to give our wasteful and inefficient government more money to spend?
