"From where the money is spent, looks like we prefer defense contractors to road and bridge contractors."
This bridge sure does NOT look very new!
" A bridge more than 50 years old collapsed right here in Pittsburgh. It had been rated in poor condition for the past 10 years."
What happened to all the maintenance money earmarked for it over those 50 YEARS?
HMM, Pittsburgh. I wonder what party runs the city?
"The Political Climate in Pittsburgh, PA is Moderately liberal.Allegheny County, PA is Moderately liberal. In Allegheny County, PA 59.4% of the people voted Democrat in the last presidential election, 39.0% voted for the Republican Party, and the remaining 1.5% voted Independent. In the last Presidential election, Allegheny county remained overwhelmingly Democratic, 59.4% to 39.0%.
Allegheny county voted Democratic in every Presidential election since 2000"
AH, another dem run city deteriorating!
You get what you vote for!
Approximately 45,000 bridges in the US are rated as "poor". My state is #1 on the list so I am very aware of this issue. Many bridges are eligible for federal matching funds which have been lacking.
In fact, if a bridge is part of the interstate system (most in my area built in the 60's and 70's) the majority of funding for repairs and replacement is a fed issue.
And it would make not a shred of difference which Democrat was elected President. The guns were cocked at Fox News, no matter who was chosen. That's a no-brainer!
Commentators at Fox News should be sending thank-you notes to Biden everyday, for helping to save their jobs!
fox commentators jobs were never in danger. they were doing great well before vegetable zhoe took office.
There is ALREADY an infrastructure bill - a real infrastructure one - and it has already been passed. For roads and bridges. The money is there. We don't NEED another bill.
Brandon's BBB (aka Build Back Broke) is a fake infrastructure bill - the one that Dems couldn't get past the Senate.
Why? Because it has nothing to do with roads, bridges, ports. It is a woke social 'human infrastructure' bill with so much cR@P stuffed inside it'll bust the US economy and taxes that'll crush anything that remains of our economy.
Don't be fooled.
Sadly, this is all very true. Hopefully some wake up before it is too late. Most of our bridges are 50+ years old.

Oh yes this is true. Butt hurt because they cant accept that their Trump lost. Who ever got in office was their target. No matter what he does, its bad all bad. Their Trump would of saved the world. Wrong. Trump saves Trump. The sooner you realize what he is, the better off you will be.

Other than the Aghan debacle, border crisis, skyrocketing inflation and crime, virus crisis, etc…, because Trump losing was a blessing in disguise. Many folks have realized the consequences of voting in a demented old man because of hurt feelings, and it’ll cost the Dems the House at midterms and beyond.
