It’s his way of saying “all your money are belong to us”.

************************************************************ in·vest·ment /ɪnˈvÉ›stmÉ™nt/ [in-vest-muhnt] Show IPA noun 1. the investing of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value. *********************************************************** It’s fair to say the two examles Newt gave, the transconeinental railroads and the Erie Canal were investments. They completely changed the face of America and made the country as a whole far richer and more powerful. From the government perspective, they hugely increased the tax base, and returned the money spent many times over. Of course the Democrats refer to all government spending as “investment” which is nonsense. And some infrastructure projects are the equivalent of “investing” in Enron.
