An investor who has his own money at risk will evaluate the opportunity carefully. If the Federal government is handing out free money, that will attract entrepreneurs to start up companies specifically to access the grant money available.
The result is, for example, brand new insulated windows being installed into shacks that have holes in the roof, missing siding, or no insulation in the walls. I am sorry for the poor person living there but the government providing new windows won't make much difference to his life.
