Well I don't teach. But I did some work for you, I found two articles.
Not Your Father’s Infrastructure | National Review
If the past five decades are any guide, the Senate infrastructure bill is unlikely to stimulate economic growth.www.nationalreview.com
Note, National Review and the Cato Institute. The National Review article quotes on Economists, Gilles Duranton. He does have a Phd, and from good schools, The London School of Economics and the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris. But he is a transportation and urban development specialist, not a Macroeconomic specialist. He heads the Real Estate Department at Wharton. Pretty telling, a fine institution like Wharton they have to sink to the Real Estate department to get an "expert" on their position. Note, I said I used the Wharton's Econometric model. They have more than half a dozen professors of Business and Public Policy. Why could they not quote one of them?
And honestly, the article is plagued with misinformation, I would be happy to detail them for you. Mostly, it is just smoke and mirrors. Go figure. But then the Cato Institute article, written by another economics professor, and I fell over laughing from where his degree came from, George Mason. You couldn't pay me to go there, and they tried. And that was more than forty years ago, far worse now. That article too, postulates claims that are just not accurate. It is propaganda, nothing more and nothing less, which is the one thing George Mason can teach.
I love it how the left is so quick to dismiss any opinion which doesn't coincide with their teachings as dribble.
