Yeah. Right. Show me the budget. If the money is spent SOLELY on road repair and bridges -- not "green" projects like bike paths, not multi-million dollar electronic billboards and highway monitoring systems, not money to put a sign every 100 feet on the side of the road, not environemental impact studies -- then I'll be all for it. But we know that isn't the case. Its a front for a bunch of green nonsense and a way to line his union and crony capitalist buddies' pockets.
OH Yeah ...my son lived on a dirt road they decided to pave about the time of the last stimulus. Then they started, and it took two years to pave down to about 1/4 mile from paved road. Now I have seen them standing around out there for past week with their equipment and stating they are paving the last 1/4 mile...lol They will be there until fall, like the last time. This is a dead end road....unbelievable. I could have done the road myself in half the time....and finished it.
MORE MONEY FOR STUPID PROJECTS, SURE WHY NOT!(sarc)
I drive a seven-mile stretch of the Garden State Parkway on my daily commute. In those seven miles I pass four full-span electric sign boards and they are building the foundations for another five.
These signs are huge — at least ten feet high and fifty feet wide. They look more like Jumbotrons.
What is so terribly important for me to know that the Parkway Authority needs an electric sign board every 4000 feet?
