... borrowers actually pay their debt back per schedule and the government accordingly retires the public debt attributable to business loans, of course with a margin to cover the cost of administration and defaults.

SBA is good if administered properly and financially soundly.

Government grants should be highly selective, and should be subject to repayment if the funded venture stands to make a profit (e.g., drug companies, tech research, etc.)

Government rebates for EVs and other consumables should have never happened. Why should everyone else help pay for Ken's Tesla?

Happy New Year, and keep punching these leftwing dogies over here with truth, logic and wisdom. They are a needy bunch.
