        A great example of smart federal investment that grew the economy while improving security.

        Dark side is how poor and POC communities were often divided and disrupted by design of interstate through major cities. Charlotte NC and St Paul MN just 2 examples.

        And today, we have nothing on fixing our crumbling infrastructure, because our “president” is doing Putin’s bidding to destroy our country.

        I'm old enough to remember my first ride on the freeway. My dad marvelled at how fast we could drive all the way across town to visit my uncle, while my mother pleaded with him to slow down. ☺

        Those were the days. Rs don’t like big projects. Christie killed tunnel. 45*’s infrastructure plan is so low a priority it’s become a running joke. Rs are going to be the end of u.s.

        And wasn’t that one of his (many) major campaign initiatives to invest in infrastructure?

        Republicans today would want it to be a profit-making private enterprise.
