“What really happens with the money spent on ‘infrastructure’?”
There is a Las Vegas mafia-like casino skim at every level the money passes through. What’s left gets divvied up amongst “connected” contractors who have greased the appropriate politicians. Then finally union workers get the remaining crumbs and their dues also funneled to democrat politicians. At least that’s the way it works in Chicago.
Yep. Government units have largely become dens of thieves, especially so at federal and state levels.
Because we the people do not watch and spank them.
Don’t forget the big guy’s 10%.
“Nice little place you got here. Be a shame if something happened to it.”
The implication here is that if you DON’T cough up the “protection money”, that is, if the “infrastructure” bill is not passed, then the portion of the “infrastructure” that you have legal title to might just be trashed or burned down. There are bad people out there that “peacefully” raise protests, and well, we can’t control them all the time, doncha know.
Peace in our time. Where have we heard that kind of “promise” before?
