Decades of infrastructure funding redirected to social programs, pork, and fraud.

I have a feeling that things will get a whole lot worse in the near future, and that's just what you can see.

Underground in most major cities, it's even worse.

Bridges require constant safety inspections. Even when engineers determine that fixes must be implemented, the politicians stall. It’s more important to have Medicare for illegal aliens and condoms for elementary school children than it to fix the infrastructure of America. One must have priorities.

They are old, and maintenance has been defered to fund programs with higher priorities. And you what programs they are.
