(1,523 posts)The Federal gov ponies up 2.5 billions and the other trillions come from state/local and private sources. When it is all said and done every road and bridge will be a privately owned toll road.
But well get to pay for most of it in local levys, fees, sales taxes etc.
Whats not to like?

Or "F-you and the country, gimme tax dollars" week
Where investors get their grants to plan on how much of the money will actually be used to repair infrastructure, and the tax payers are forced to pay for the grants.

Oh, too bad they leveraged so much debt to finance tax cuts for the elite and corporations already.
