Where did the infrastructure money go anyways? A whole lot of the nation deteriorated and the press had no answers.

Most of the money went to bail out banks, who gave illegal Mexicans billions in housing loans they couldn’t pay. All to the end of legitimizing them as Dim voting citizens. Biggest boondoggle ever. Shovel ready, ha.

As much as I hate Obama for all the screw-ups he did, this one was not his. The damn,along with a number of them, was earmarked for money, but it was to be spent by three power companies in California that sited that the damn met federal safety standards and that “earth” spillways were acceptable. This one was the screw-up of California that told the feds they didn’t need the funds and by states rights, they had the last say.

But when it all came down to it, Gov. Moonbeam, who was a major part of the idiocy, may say that Trump isn’t his president, but it didn’t stop him from begging emergency funds from Trump who surrendered the cash immediately. Can you hear him now gov?

Only 9% of the so called stimulus actually went to true public works infrastructure projects. Most of those were simple asphalt overlay projects as those were considered exempt from environmental regulations which is the biggest killer of project delivery due to the time needed to comply and get final project approval.
