Yep- put a private company in charge. I remember in Ca when the highway collapsed in an earthquake and a private company had it fixed and up and running months earlier than estimated.

But bring up a company from the south. Remember the ‘Big Dig’ and that union nightmare in the north.

I remember from my days when I lived in Brooklyn, about how the government wanted to build a power plant out on Long Island. They hired the Teamsters, who brought in two separate crews: one to work on the power plant during the day, and a night crew to disassemble everything that was built. That way, the Teamsters could keep charging the government. This went on for years.
