Our idiot Transportation Secretary lady

Insulted congress this week by not coming to testify about what we need to do for our national infrastructure.
The bridges that are about to fall, the interstates that are worn out (fifty years old), thousands of dams to soon start breaching, lack of power generation, poor railroads, poor bus system, poor urban transportation, dilapidated sewer systems in most big cities, scarcity of water storage, and on and on.
She has written several reports indicating that when those things are really needed, private enterprise will build them and then lease them back to us--nuf said.
I have one question: how many miles of Interstate roads would Georgia have built if the federal government had not covered 90% of the costs? Would neighboring states have built theirs at the same time to link up--could they all agree where to build them from and to?
Of course not, and the same goes for water storage and release, and railroads, and everything else.
Bush must agree, he says nothing!

Bush thinks infrastructure is good for a thousand years!
