Spending the money to rebuild our roads and bridges shouldn't scare us because it's not a sacrifice, it's an investment, said Trumka

Sounds good me.

Let's move some money out of food stamps and welfare and into road and bridge building.

And to get maximum bang for the buck, no more "prevailing wage."

States should pay for their own roads. Tell the feds that their gas tax is now part of state’s transportation fund. This is a joke, letting the federal government tax gas in which the funds go and line the Ruling Class’ pockets.

Richard Trumka is a terrorist. He led his terrorist United Mine workers on a terror filled strike in SW Va.

Find who stole our last six trillion dineros, which Obama told us was to include lots of new infrastructure. Use that money. (Or refund it to us )

Just so you guys know, “infrastructure” is a code used by the left to push for increased taxes in the name of “fixing” roads and bridges or whatever.

First of all, Obama has been there for 5 years. The first two with a dem congress. Yet nothing was done other than paying his cronies under the guise of infrastructure spending.

Second, I’ve never seen a highway construction crew that wasn’t mostly Mexican. I doubt many of them are legal and they’re not union.

The vast majority of bridges rated by Americas engineers as in critical need of repair are (1) in a handful of states and (2) NOT priorities from either a population standpoint or an interstate commerce standpoint. Therefor the “critical national” priorities of investment in infrastructure is real but vastly smaller than those behind the agenda pushing for that priority want to make it out to be.
