Yeah if we spend half as much but get only 1/4 as much done that's not a success.

Spending 50% more to initiatives that inflate the value of real estate as our GDP is not good either.

    Then fucking force companies to reinvest then. Tax the shit out of profits unless it is reinvested back into the economy through their employees and any other mean.

    Corpos are quick to suckle at the government tit for subventions that they don't need, but when comes the time to give back to their community, crickets.
