These huge spending bills are just cover for politicians stealing from the treasury. Can anyone name one project Obama’s TARP spending paid for? All I can recall of TARP expenditures is $535 million to Solyndra, that almost immediately declared bankruptcy. And then continued the outrage when it’s corporate officers convinced the bankruptcy court that they were entitled to millions in bonuses. Unbelievable.

It’s obvious the U.S. government is just the Mob on steroids, corrupt beyond all imagination. No wonder the Big Guy was installed.

We may look back on this bill someday and think we were lucky if Deep State settles for just looting and running...

Some news reporter might want to find out who put that provision in.

I believe group editing software has tracing capabilities.

If the federal government pays for state road repair, states will let their roads deteriorate until federal funds are received.

If the federal government pays for city street repair, cities will let their streets deteriorate until federal funds are received.

Roads like US27 and I-95 are federal roads. GA49 is a state road.

Federal motor fuel taxes should pay for federal road and bridge repair and construction.

State motor fuel taxes should pay for state road and bridge repair and construction.
