Almost. Hole-digging isn't any meaningful sort of employment, it's merely a tactic to put dollars in the hands of consumers, increasing "aggregate demand" (consumer spending), which DOES provide employment, as that spending is spent on OTHER people's otherwise-unemployed labor (not the hole-diggers' labor)
>>Almost. Hole-digging isn't any meaningful sort of employment
We aren't talking about literal hole-digging. There are a ton of infrastructure projects in America (highways, bridges, etc.) that could use the labor in construction.
