Endorse This: John Oliver Presents 'Infrastructure'
The National Memo
John Oliver tackled one of the most important issues that people aren't talking about, on his Sunday night show: The need for regular maintenance and funding of America's existing roads, bridges, and other key infrastructure and the fact that nobody wants to actually pay for this vital need. So to get people interested, he came up with a way to actually make it exciting.

Pathetic that our news sources don't cover this. Absolutely pathetic.
