There is no place where government creates more jobs than free enterprise does. But there are times when it does - like the Great Depression. CCC and WPA created jobs when free enterprise couldn't or wouldn't. It's true that they didn't end the Great Depression - WWII did. But they kept body and soul together for millions of people. Liberals think that's a good thing - at least this liberal does.
But that argument is irrelevant to health care. Health care is more important than the automobile industry, for example. One can survive, even thrive in some places, without a car or truck. IF private industry had done the job, we wouldn't be having this discussion.
Go ahead and show me where a liberal on this board has claimed that government, in general, does a better job of creating jobs than free enterprise.

More epicycles!
The Mises Institute put out a great piece a few years ago on this subject: https://mises.org/library/world-war-...eat-depression
Good article, SicEm. Here's one I always liked, by Thomas Sowell on Hayek:

Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.
