Infrastructure looks a lot different than it in the 1950s.

Yet the rethugs can't figure it out. That and they just put a bandaid on it for so long that bandaids are not enough.
Biden has a plan to fix the America we live in now, The rethugs just want to fix it for 1950s America, ya know, the one that doesn't exist anymore.
In truth, their 1950s never existed.They never looked ahead and spend the money to prepare for the new America that starting to form back in the 80s.
Now we spent a lot of money. Luckily it will make jobs.
That's another thing, what is the rethugs problem with job creation?

Rethugs are so backwards!

"In truth, their 1950s never existed. They never looked ahead and spend the money to prepare for the new America."

What would you call the Eisenhower Interstate Highway system. Believe it was started in the 1950s. We still use them, as a matter of fact, if they didn't exist, the "new America" would probably exist. IMO

are the responsibility of the individual states to maintain. Road and bridge deterioration can be found in all states.
