What a joke. Trump must tell them to mind their own business.
They have yuge problems of their own making to solve.
The rest of the planet can suck on it.
Hmmm. The slimes are off of Russia collusion and attempting a critique of Trump’s agenda. Winning!!
Apparently, we should be more like China.
Golly, I’m surprised the NYT think China is better than America. /s
and then there was the New SF Bay Bridge whose component parts were built in China that are now a huge problem because of the super low quality (below legal specs but installed anyway)is jeopardizing the life expectancy of the bridge. The tax payers got screwed and the crooked politicians made bank on the deal with secret kickbacks from the mafia controlled unionized contractors. That den of thieves and snakes are laughing all the way to bank.
Too funny! A company (NYT) that has never built anything except a bad reputation telling a builder how to conduct business.
“In India, politically connected firms have captured contracts on the strength of relationships with officialdom”
You mean like Tesla?
Note to world...ESAD.
I opposed government infrastructure stimulus when 0bama, Clinton and Bush tried to get it passed. I oppose it now.
Change laws if needed to stimulate, but stop throwing tax dollars to infrastructure.
Dear World,
Eff You.
The USA
Union bailout.. a Trillion dollars. But will we have fancy signs posted so we feel good about another bailout?
“yielding defective engineering at bloated prices...”
Like the Boston Big Dig???
I only skimmed thru the first few sentences, but, unless the writer actually figured out what he was writing and corrected it later, he proves that he really is a moron.
His first few examples, were all blaring examples of corruption. Again, I didn’t read the whole thing, but if I’m not mistaken, there are plenty of examples of governments, working with private companies that got fantastic results. Usually by incentivizing the pace of work, etc, all while having oversight on what was being done.
I think the President calls that something like....Being ahead of schedule and under budget. You know, how businesses operate and demand performance thru detailed contracts and proposals. I don’t know, maybe for once, the taxpayer will actually get their money’s worth, instead of having never ending road construction because the contractor is padding someone’s pocket.
