Only when it's funneled into private companies through purchases of their goods and services. Nobody denies that government defense spending benefits the private sector. That doesn't mean that government trying to choose winners and losers in the energy sector of the economy is the same thing however.:rolleyes:

When nuclear energy was brand new, the first customer was the US Navy.

Government spending is entirely funneled into the private sector. Wal-Mart makes enormous profit off of food stamps. Medicare spending channels enormous wealth to pharmaceutical companies. Infrastructure spending enriches telecom companies, Caterpillar, and the chemical companies that make asphalt. None of that is at all inferior economically to defense spending.

We've been trying to tell you this for years but you insist on putting defense spending on a magical pedestal.

Please, tell this shit to school children. That fact is defending the nation is a constitutional responsibility of the government and a legitimate function of government spending. Deficit spending on everything else in order to get re-elected, isn't. Obama or the Congress does not have the authority to bind future Congress' or the economic futures of Americans yet unborn. Government spending must be held to national priorities, the defense of the nation being number one. Obama should be tried for calling Bush' deficit spending unpatriotic and then proceeding to quadruple that deficit.

Cool that you think that.

But you didn't counter my point in the least.
