I wonder if that would just be like printing money but we'd have nice roads?

If I had nice roads I'd be less mad at the inflation probably.
Well the crux is the programs need to add value - which really is the tricky bit. Wasting money, time and resources on building a road to nowhere would be even worse than simply printing money, right?

And I guess that really is the tricky part governments face (assuming they aren’t just cronies spending laundering funds through their friends which lets face it - they probably are).
