All Yur Stimulus are Up in Smoke!!!

The only thing “shovel- ready” about the administration’s last six Trillion dineros of “ spending” were the shovels the political crooks used to scoop up and steak all our money

[E. Pluribus Unum]

They weren't actually shovel-ready last time, but this time we guarantee that they are shovel-ready and we won't just steal it like we did last time!

We promise!

Report: Connecticut roads among worst in the country

[SoFloFreeper]

From the Washington Post, November 2008, detailing the Clown's "stimulus", aka "PorkUlus", that eventually passed in 2009:Democrats' Stimulus Plan May Reach $700 Billion...The plan would include new funding for public-works projects to repair the nation's crumbling infrastructure, as well as a fresh infusion of cash to promote green technology and alternative-energy sources.

[Vince Ferrer]

If I had a nickel for every time I heard a politician says “crumbling roads and bridges”...

[headstamp 2]

The drumbeat for another trillion dollars to nowhere begins.

[Mr. K]

Gosh if only the government had $3 or $4Trillion dolloars to spend on ‘shovel-ready’ projects...

WHAT THE F#$%^ DID THEY DO WITH ALL THAT MONEY???

On the other hand, private residences in the D.C. area did get quite the upgrade over the last 5 years.

[vpintheak]

Is that like everything else this administration has promised?

I can attest to the fact that a dollar doesn’t go as far as it used to, but $877 Billion was already ear marked for those shovel ready jobs to fix our infrastructure. I suggest the feds use that money before they ask for more. Oh it’s all gone they’ll say. Then congress needs to demand to be shown where the hell it all went or not another dime.

[BenLurkin]

If decaying infrastructure really is a problem — it would have been repaired/rebuilt in 2009 using the $800 billion of stimulus money.

Sorry, your bridge money went to aid and abet illegal invaders in coming into your country

Union wages, union quality work. /S

Highway Trust Fund Broke ? It went the way of local “lite rail” and streetcars with the slogan “What’s good for General Motors is good for the country” because General Motors wanted citys to use its busses and sell more cars. Only this time it was sell more trucks.

Just how were roads maintained prior to trucking de-regulation ? Trucklines operated over selected routes where they paid states for “operating rights” to use their highways and those funds went into their maintainence. Toll roads were another answer. No thought was given when de-reg happened as to how roads were to be continued to be maintained. It put thousands out of work and the reason Jummy Hoffa backed Reagan.

BTW Both happened with the democrats in control.

[Joe Boucher]

most of these “stimulus” funds went to unionists.
Stop spending my money ya bastards.
