Of course, taxpayers will pay. Who else could? But look what we’ll get for our money: not only a monstrously over-engineered wonder — which is not a bad thing — with bike paths, and lanes for the handicapped and pregnant mothers, but also one constructed wholly with union labor at twice the cost, most likely from foreign steel, all done after enormous tranches of money are disbursed for countless superfluous environmental studies. And to crown that, we’ll get a bridge not named after a white slave-owner who died centuries ago, but some modern, woke, what-have-you, which will satisfy our universal desire to signal our virtue and feel good. What a deal!
