We need new briges, new roads, hi speed rail and we're spending a fortune on military crap.

Bridges and roads with exception of the interstate system, are a state matter.


That's not entirely true.....the Feds provide monies for other transportation projects like airports. However, its our interstate system that is falling apart from overuse and age. Think MPLS bridge collapse. Its needs a nearly total rebuild.

And then there are hi speed trains......we have none while the rest of the world is building them at a good pace.

Feds should reduce those funds not increase them. They canceled the F-22 and the F-15, F-16, and F-18 are aging. We need to stay in front of the rest of the world with stealth fighters.

Why?

The planes are already in production and to stop it now would cost more than several planes with nothing to show for it.

Even though its 25% over budget? Oh wait....they are getting built in GA, aren't they? I should have known.

Is this the jet you were asking about? Why can't you stay on topic instead of switching subject's? I don't think your mind can properly organize data.

No, its private jets for Congress......in fact, two private jets for Congress.....that I have posted to you repeatedly over the past few months. They were jets to built by Aerojet of GA.....planes that your esteemed congressmen fought hard for.

Its seems its you who can stay on top of things. ;-)
