America has fallen far.

I compare the building of the 5 mile long Mackinaw Bridge to the building of the Hoover Dam Bypass bridge as an example.

The mackinaw was built in about 3 years with no winter construction for about $100 million dollars.

The 2000 foot Hoover dam bypass took some 10 years at a cost of over $240 million dollars.
