Ironically, our infrastructure is now falling way behind other parts of the world. Without state of the art infrastructure, we cannot compete. When looking at the 'surplus' (and it is a stretch to call it a surplus) we gave priority to private wealth and decided that growing public squalor was of little concern. We have a mid twentieth century transportation system, a mid twentieth century energy system, and a k-12 educational system that is becoming the laughing stock of the advanced industrial nations -- rotting from the bottom up. As for our health care system, it is the least cost effective system in the world. In a word, we have shown no intelligence in managing our commons -- our infrastructure.
