Of course it fails at creating jobs, just look throughout the history of China, Argentena, Japan, etc. Once they became more free market, the economy grew rapidly.

Government can create jobs...
...but can it create competition, ingenuity, and the desire to succeed?

Actually it can. Look no further than the aerospace and defense industry. Although some have also argued reasonably that the contracting and procurement system is broken.
Because obviously the only thing capable of motivating people is making moar money.
Tbh I'm skeptical of governmet programs. They always seem so wasteful and incompetent. I don't have knowledge on the aerospace/defense industry, but I do think the free market is a better place for jobs and like aspects of ingenuity/competition than government..
You know, I really need to start reading up on political/economical sciences. I do hold, though, to the notion that price doesn't lie and that the free market should set the price and not government.
100% Fact. What is there to even argue about? The free market will always trump the governments ability to create jobs number wise.Is this a joke?
That is the nature of humans. We desire to succeed; we like to own things.
We can not all abide by Marx's altruistic feelings.
