Wait....you mean government debt fueled construction won’t stimulate a communist economy into modernity and prosperity?
When I was in grad school, one of my profs spent a year in Russia teaching capitalism. He got to know the man in charge of all rail distribution in Russia. He was coming up to the end of a Five Year Plan (later changed to 7 years ‘cuz they were always short) and was almost a million metric ton/miles short of his quota. Knowing that missing your quota meant an all expense paid vacation to Siberia, he loaded up a train with almost 50 gondola cars filled with rocks and ran it almost nonstop between Moscow and Vladivostok for 8 months. He was given a commendation for exceeding his quota. Sounds like something Obozo would do...
