I'll betcha if a national poll was taken the majority of people would

rail system network and trains capable of travelling 200+ mph.

The power grid isn't as big of a problem as you may think. Demand has
basically flat lined in the past several years and has actually dropped
in some. Smart grids and energy efficient devices have helped.



Not to worry. Nothing much is happening in refurbishing roads,
bridges, dams, infrastructure.

That must be a North East problem. Florida maintains it's roads
..

BTW who was talking about dams?
The environmentalists want all of them blown up anyway

Roads don't freeze in Florida. Northerners haven't figured out how to
build roads to survive the harsh winters they experience.


The "infrastructure" is not crumbling... I drive all over the place with
a trailer. The roads are fine... the bridges are fine....


You've obviously not been on I-95 around Boston with a trailer.


I drive around there all the time, half of our tracks are north of there
but I do avoid the Boston Loop as much as possible...

Still, 30-40 miles of interstate around one city doesn't prove the Libs
point about the country infrastructure being crumbling...
The asphalt dips three to five
inches just before the concrete overpasses. When the wheels hit the concrete overpass, the trailer
seems to bounce a foot. Our cabinet doors were opened, crap all over the floor, and shelves broken.
What a mess.
