MSNBC commentator Rachel Maddow has pointed to the 726-foot-high, 660-foot-wide dam as proof that some projects are just too big for private enterprise.
Only trouble with what Maddow says is that the dam was built by private enterprise. It was contracted out and built by private enterprise, despite all the efforts the government made to interfere with the construction, it was completed under budget and on time.
It was also begun before the New Deal started, which is kind of strange that the left wants to take credit for it.
If the left got its way today, they would tear it down.
