It's worse than that. Socialists don't know what wealth creation is.

And many problems are rooted in the fact that socialists measure the
success of a policy in terms of how much (other peoples') money is spent
on it, not in terms of what it achieves. 

So nobody in the US government is at all bothered by the spending of
7.5 billion dollars on EV charging stations, with only seven stations
functional after three years. It's the money spent which matters.
