Why Government Can’t Build Broadband or Charging Stations… Or Anything!

The government promised to expand broadband, build hundreds of thousands of EV chargers, and to bring back semiconductor jobs.

They delivered delays, waste, and failure. Why? Because they spend your money, not their own.

After three years and $65 billion spent to expand broadband, not a single person has yet been connected.

Also, two years into Biden's $7.5 billion EV charging stations initiative, which was supposed to build 500,000 stations, only seven have been built.

The CHIPS Act promised to bring semiconductor jobs back to America.

But the money got tied up in DEI quotas, climate pledges, and union mandates.

When bureaucrats spend other people's money, they have little incentive to spend it carefully.

Our new video explains why government should leave building things to the private sector.
