Federal Gov't spends the $1. The "Economy" gets the $1.44
If I'm interpreting what you pasted right.
So yes, a plus for the economy overall, but you'd need to tax the resulting $1.44 at almost 70% to not end up with more Federal debt.
Not saying it's a bad idea, but pointing out why such infrastructure projects are actually difficult to fund. Public expenditure, private return on that investment. [Post edited by Late 80s Hokie at 05/06/2016 3:21PM]
