Very good post there. Sometimes of course it is corrupt as well, and all for good intentions. As long as we are doing something for appearances sake, might as well help our buddies out. Locally I see these government funded business incubators and business parks built. Conference room, fax machine, staff to answer a bank of phones and pretend it is a real company. Business park construction contract goes to this guy's cousin who is a friend of the guy who donates. His niece will be the secretary. We have a connection that has some chairs he picked up from a dumpster, let's just make up a receipt that says we bought them new for $1100 each. Hurray, we are creating jobs. Even have a couple of tenants for the new building, there is a guy whose dream it is to own an ice cream cart, a lady that wants to open her own nail salon and start making more than minimum wage working for others, and an old guy who has been printing coupon flyers with advertisements for local businesses out of his garage. They are incubating, see? Soon this will all pay off somehow. If not, well those construction jobs were real jobs, so it worked, success. Government initiatives really do work. Jobs were created and that's a fact.
