NG - 'Spending' by government is very often 'investment' in things like infrastructure, education, or science/research, which the private sector can't/won't support.  If the all-knowing invisible hand of the private sector worked so efficiently, there wouldn't have been the mass sign-up of millions upon millions of Americans who needed health insurance, but could only get it under Obamacare, instead of the private sector having already tapped that obviously under-served market. The same is true of bridges, highways, schools, in almost all 3,000+ counties in this country. Billionaire$ and Trillionaire$ are investing in space tourism and how to mine the moon, instead of the infrastructure investment which pays Americans dividends by juicing our GDP.
