message		I thought you would be interested in reading this article Governments favour highways over health care in economic recession With governments feeling the pain of an economic recession it seems to be accepted political practice in many Canadian jurisdictions to invest in certain "shovel-ready" types of physical infrastructure --- like highways and bridges--- by way of deficit financing, but at the same time, there appears to be a general reluctance to accrue deficits for certain forms of social infrastructure --- like education and medical care. Does this make sense to you? Is there a rational basis for favouring one sort of infrastructure investment over another? What priorities do you feel are most worthy or broadly beneficial for governments to address when they are accruing public debt?
