Does hiring more police and TSA raise the GDP? Like manufacturing security?

I think if someone puts a hot dog in a bun and sells it that is considered manufacturing.

Why is all this money being wasted for security and not much is being spent for infrastructure?

Are foreign wealth funds really buying up parking meter fees, Spanish govt. buying up toll roads, etc?

Is there really a strategic oil reserve, or is it just electronic "markers"? I mean, who pumps oil out of the ground and pumps it back in?

There are many unanswered questions in this mysterious universe.

Every block will have a block captain and at least one assistant. They will have badges.

If you live in public housing high rises, every floor will have a captain. He will be the "jefe".

You will pay a "tipa" to him. If you have nothing to offer, maybe you have a young daughter. No?

Because after 911 there was a huge cry from Americans to be safe.

Unfortunately, they were all just caught up in the moment, and like any knee-jerk reactions they didn't think about what would actually be needed to make people safer.

So we got more security. And now there's nothing anybody can do about it, unless they're filthy rich and can hire an army of lawyers to stop them.
