Well that's obviously the wrong way. The Obama way is for the government to spend lots of money on it's self instead.
Instead of a PS3, wouldn't you rather have all govermnet employees driving a brand new eco friendly hybrid car instead?
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
