Economic growth comes from entrepreneurs risking their own money, not from politicians risking your money.
I mostly agree, with some pretty important exceptions when it comes to infrastructure. Looking at history: the Homestead Act, Pacific Railroad Act, REA, Interstate Highways Act, all the locks and dams, even the early development of the internet by the military. Take all of these things away and our country's economic development would have been significantly slowed. That infrastructure was and is necessary for business, industry, and agriculture to thrive.
