Yet another reason...
 
....why we are becoming a second-rate nation.

Crumbling infrastructure. Took a road trip on I-95 north and was
appalled at the miserable condition of the main north-south interstate
on the east coast, the bridges and the fact that in most places, it
still is only two lanes on each side. Massive traffic jams, bridges that
look as if they are ready to fail, crumbing surfaces. And our railroads
are in even worse shape.

Meanwhile, countries that take their economies seriously are building
and fixing infrastructure like there's no tomorrow.

I 95 isn't shovel ready in the north yet. Fact is the population is
shifting southward toward warmer climes. That's where all the
infrastructure repairs and improvements are happening. *Shovel ready, baby*

Yeah, it's obvious they are getting ready for another "no-jobs, only

You gotta wonder what Obama did with almost a trillion bucks he was going to spend on those shovel

And now he wants more.

You wuld think for $5 trillion in debt in 33 months that Obama would
re-build some roads or something. But guess big fat ineffective
government, banks and buddy deals are more important than the people.
Hey, stop listening to the mans lips and watch his walk.

He distributed it to those who bundled money for his election. They did
pretty good too, donate a couple million of other peoples money, and you
get 50 million in return. Pretty good for a days work...

That section of I-95 has been in a state of perpetual repair for as long as
I can remember.
When we used to drive south for the winters one of the worst parts of the
trip was from just north
of the New Haven area down through southern Connecticut and, of course,
through New York.
One of the problems is the amount of daily traffic in that area. The roads
are worn out faster
than they can be repaired. In fact, as I remember, the roads really didn't
get a lot better and
driving a little more relaxing until we got well into Virginia and points
south.

I often took the "long" route via Rt. 84/86. Much longer, but nicer and
more scenic.

Best trip was by boat!

East Haven *to* the NJ Turnpike was pretty grim in terms of disrepair
and traffic, but the entire route demonstrates that our national
priorities have been wrong for a long time. Trillions of dollars on the
military and moronic wars, but not enough on our roads, bridges,
airports, rail systems, power grid, et cetera.

To me, the worst part of I-95, aside from the sections leading to NYC
from the north, is from the Virginia border up north through North
Carolina. The traffic thins out a bit after that, but then it picks up
mightily south of Jacksonville, Florida, to Miami. Too much traffic, not
enough lanes, too many kamikaze truck drivers. too many oversized
campers weaving too and fro.

Near Baltimore, we take the Harbor Tunnel route to I-97, by Thurgood
Marshall Airport, and then just west of Annapolis, we get onto a state
road. Much nicer than taking I-95 to the Beltway.

We went offshore yesterday from Beaufort/Morehead City south to
Masonboro Inlet/Wrightsville Beach. There were a few bumps in that
road also but not too bad. Nice sunny day for a change.

84/86 is a nice way to go. There's lots of factors that cause road
deterioration, like subgrade conditions, freeze/thaw cycles, etc.

Yes! The last time I went to the east coast of Florida, there were more
northern accents than southern!


Since when is Cuban a "northern" accent?


"Cuban"? Most Cubans speak Spanish. Many Cubans also speak English and
other languages. I'll have to ask my Cuban friends if they speak "Cuban."

Yes they do. They have there own dialect. Go ahead, ask.


Pfffft, he is still stalking me, trying to be something superior.. I
wonder if Dr. Flabchin and her colleagues are ready to see just what
they are dealing with. So, I can assume he doesn't accept my deal, so be
it, but remember, there is no such thing as a fair fight:)


Go for it, I think Dr. Fourchin should be notified!


Hey, I was pretty clear. I guess some folks don't have the pride to
protect their families and reputation. So be it, remember "two eyes for
an eye, a mouth full of teeth for a tooth and the son of a bitch won't
come back to see what you have for him next time around". I gave him a
chance, guess he isn't smart enough to take the deal.

That's exactly how I described Honolulu. Only instead of NYC, I said
"St. Louis"....

I'd agree. Honolulu is also a crime riddled hole.

...why we are becoming a second-rate nation.

Crumbling infrastructure. Took a road trip on I-95 north and was
appalled at the miserable condition of the main north-south interstate
on the east coast, the bridges and the fact that in most places, it
still is only two lanes on each side. Massive traffic jams, bridges that
look as if they are ready to fail, crumbing surfaces. And our railroads
are in even worse shape.

Meanwhile, countries that take their economies seriously are building
and fixing infrastructure like there's no tomorrow.


Quality union labor built with quality union provided supplies.
