15.5 billion? Who would spend 25 billion on a bridge? Wow, amazing how they think a 35 billion bridge to Sicily would be worth it.

don't worry it will be 45 billion but we won't build it anyway. But you know, between expropriations, bribes, friends of friends, projects, etc. some money will have to be spent.
UK has already spent 1.2 billion GBP on a bridge over the Thames estuary and construction hasn't even started yet.
In New Zealand we pay this much for diesel ferries
