To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

I understand that Congress is going to analyze what parts of our infrastructure should be owned and operated strictly by American companies or government. I think the sooner they do this, the better.

Interesting that the right of way for all these roads is purchased by the states, and then owned by the states.

Congress authority to address state owned property issues is pretty limited.

Haven't you had enough of government ownership of stuff?

Since no American companies bid on the purchase of the P&O ports, it's likely that, if a company like SSA takes them over, the state or local entities that own them will pay through the roof for the privilege.

Do you have any details of what they are proposing to look at? Such as what do they define as infrastructure, etc? I'd assume you could consider such things as roads, electric grids, railways, canals, dams, as infrastructure. But what about pipelines, refineries, television, communications, etc. This could become an interesting review by the government.
