Please Mr. government man, don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

The govt may not have specific plans.......other than to privatize it to some Mexican company so they can wash their hands of it.

The last urban myth like this one concerned the Postal Concentration Centers ~ back in the 1960s the leftards got the idea the Post Office Department had built concentration camps to which they'd be sent after being rounded up by the government.

These, of course, were simply "concentration points" to which non-preferential classes of mail were sent for distribution and re-dispatch.

It went on for years and years and years. Thousands of letters were written by POD and then USPS officials to fearful leftwards around the country telling them what a PCC really was.

It was all to no avail. Leftards will believe what they want and many probably believe thousands of their little friends are still imprisoned in a PCC.

It made a lot of around news here a few years back. There was a plan for a shortcut of sorts to I-94. I think it was more of a test case to see how it would be received but it wasn’t received well. Their estimates that they would only have to “relocate” some 350 families didn’t go over very well.

Texas, Gov. Ron Perry (REPUBLICAN), has hired a MEXICAN company to build the trans-Texas superhighway from the Mexican border to Oklahoma.

To build it they are using emminent domain powers to force out farmers and other landowners.

This is a REPUBLICAN led disgrace.

What this group is doing makes sense.

I won’t change any minds on FR. Clinging tightly to conspiracies is a favorite past time. Finding pieces of corroborating evidence is like finding a bit of gold in your sluice pan. I wouldn’t want to deprive anyone from having a good time.

What this group is doing makes sense.

In a world of corporatist fascism, it does.

[listenhillary]

Have your State Representatives demand that the Mexican construction contract be invalidated and a US company chosen instead.

It’s your money and your Representatives that control the purse strings.

Petition to recall your Governor.

[listenhillary]

fascism would be the state control of business.

Corporate fascism sounds like some cool phase somebody made up and it sounds evil because of the “facism” part. It makes no sense.

Actually, a SPANISH company has teamed up with H.B. Zachry, a construction company, under RICK perry to build TTC-35 of the Trans-Texas Corridor.

What about the HIGH PRIORITY CORRIDORS from the NATIONAL HIGHWAY SYSTEM DESIGNATION ACT OF 1995?
Is anyone saying that those corridors weren't implemented into law?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I’m not sure what those very real corridors have to do with this mythical one.

[philman_36]

...has hired a MEXICAN company...
They're from Spain, not Mexico.
Cintras merged with Zachary.

[listenhillary]

Eisenhower's Federal interstates stomped all over states rights.

The President also felt that the newer, multi-lane highways were essential to a strong national defense.

That what that bastard wanted you to think! Why the secrecy?

See!

Seems to me like they're progressing into a "bigger is better" system of roads.
