Did you see one of the

Cite, please? *The Mayor of Las Vegas, Oscar Goodman, is *seeking*

I think we'll be seeing a lot of heavy and highway projects and other
federal construction that falls under the purview of Davis-Bacon and
prevailing wages.
The Big Dig - oh joy. *15 Billion for what was supposed to be a 3

tunnels leak at a gazillion gallons a day. Tripled tolls on the Mass
Pike.
Yep - let's go for broke.
