Why can’t the US Govt float Infrastructure Bonds like they did War Bonds during WWII? I’d buy one.
You can’t borrow from “the future,” or from “our children and grandchildren,” no matter what sloppy thinkers think.
As Hayek and Mises said, WWII was fully paid for the instant the last bullet was fired. In other words, all government spending makes somebody poorer, whether it’s for war, bridges, schrools, anything. And it makes people poorer NOW, not ten, fifty, or a hundred years from now.
