The interstate highway system wasn’t stimulus spending. It was about boldly improving transportation in America. That infra-structure improvement has paid back a million times its cost.
Agree on the interstates and think Trump has a good idea of “where” it needs to be spent, unlike solar panels and unicorns of the left.
That is not what we have really gotten in the last rounds of stimulus spending. I think we can do this without the sugar high from debt spending - his economic ideas and principles are very sound. Once and for all, I would love to see us PROVE we are right and they are wrong without it involving additional debt on our children and grandchildren.
I am still very happy with Trump and I trust him - I view our debt and deficit spending a bit more harshly than others do. It is beyond time to get our fiscal house in order and that would be as effective in restoring faith in America as Trump’s promised policies. We need a balanced budget amendment and we need discipline as a nation or this cycle of insanity will continue.
There is no way congress can keep their little piggy fingers out of the stimulus pie. It’s made them wealthy before and they will get wealthy again. Anyone who thinks Trump is going to direct the spending (and not congress) is in for disappointment. Hope I am wrong, but that is the way I see it.
