If those figures are correct as far as money spent and jobs created, they would have made a more meaningful impact on individuals with entitlement checks, no strings attached.  That's government efficiency at work.  And the same powers that be are asking us to let them take over healthcare because they can do it more efficiently and at a lower cost than those damn insurance companies making a "criminal"  aggregate 2.2% profit last year.

What if 20% of the people in this country didn't have access to paved roads?
What if 20% of the people in this country didn't have access to public options in education?

Please don't compare the profits of insurance companies to selling Tupperware.   It's insulting.
