[Citizen Tom Paine]

Last week, I returned from a drive around the eastern half of the country of about 4,000 miles. This country had better take some of the "wealth" which it is generating and rebuild some of the existing interstate highways. They are in sad shape.

Based on the number of cars that I saw on all of the roads, we had better take some of that "wealth" and start a major roadbuilding effort. IMHO

You have hit the nail on the head! No-one is investing in
infastructure. There is no investment in new plants (at least, not in this country). New production facilities are
what create jobs.

Any cargo which has to travel more that 250 miles should be shipped by air, train, or water.

For some reason the free market disagrees with the cost effectiveness of your proposal.
