I'm still waiting to see the results of the massive infrastructure package that was passed in 2008. We've had a few more rounds of such spending, supposedly because of outdated infrastructure. You have to wonder how many more times they are going to get away with that trick.

Whenever they pass massive spending, its clear they are not talking to American people. They are talking to the corporations that are going to benefit.

This heavily decayed rusty bridge support [1] is under the Chicago Metra Union Pacific Track UP-N line that has 34,000 passengers riding across this bridge on 70 scheduled trains at 50-70 mph each weekday.

While it is admittedly just a single example, everyone else's experiences seem equally as anecdotal.

This. Some of my clients are in the transportation industry and they were scratching their heads on where that money went.
