“Democrats say they worry that Trump’s plan will focus on trying to entice more private investment in transportation projects and reduce regulations that require environmental reviews and community consultation on projects...”

Translation: “We Democrats have always used public spending as a way to line our pockets individually, and increase our power as a Party. An d that has to be part of your bill.”

We do not want any more TTC projects. Not interested in any infrastructure plans which benefit private interests while sticking it to landowners. The local coordination process protects the stakeholders from federal overreach.

DemocRATs bristle at everything Republican or Trump! Bunch of frickin’ hedgehogs!

there may not be enough money to pay for lowering tax rates

Sick of this liberal talking point of having to pay for lowering tax rates. Lowering tax rates brings in more money to the treasury. There is no need to pay for lowering rates.

With two of his other top campaign pledges in trouble - an effort to repeal and replace the Obama administration health care law has failed so far, and without savings to the government from health care changes there may not be enough money to pay for lowering tax rates....

One of the key reasons for the infrastructure initiative is to show what happens when you actually spend the money on infrastructure instead of it going into the cesspool of liberal corruption.
