Biden/Dems infrastructure legislation = a huge win for the country.

Ask yourself: Why would Republicans oppose infrastructure bills when infrastructure is so vital to economic growth, efficiency, progress.

Meh. Getting rid of 80+ furnaces are a good thing. The 90+ is better, more efficient and burns a more complete combustion of fuel gas than the 80%.

Do you get the fact the 90% is where it starts? Then someone comes up with a 98% rate... then 100%... then it's incorporating theoretical technology to be "safe" for consumers and, of course, the environment.

You give these turds a millimeter and they take a light year.

1. It spends money we don't have. Would need to see the cost/benefit of the borrowing vs the impacts of borrowing and diverting funds from the private sector.
2. What are the projects? Some are important, some are a waste.
3. Cronyism rules baked in to reward political donors and effect an agenda (eg. labor rules)
4. Projects chosen for political agenda over concrete need.

So the simplistic idea that it = a huge win for the country and that all these projects are vital to economic growth, efficiency and progress indicates your lack of ability for critical thinking.

This is the basic question. Spending $200K to build a footbridge over a two-foot wide creek on a trail used by 50 people a year is a waste of money. I'm willing to bet the vast majority of these "infrastructure" projects are just that- from experience.

well if you remember the bill also argued for "Human Infrastructure" so any number of handouts to people were justified as "infrastructure". It's not critical bridges and roads. Also, it will be like Covid money where it goes through so many hands that God knows what it will eventually be spent for. Here in Alabama we used Covid money to build prisons.

Nothing fixes infrastructure like Underground Railroad museums, dei initiatives, and “equitable” energy.

I seem to remember a few bridges to nowhere and at least one airport in the middle of nowhere. I've forgotten the airport details (wasn't Denver), but I could swear they built it and nobody came. The airport may be John Murtha Johnstown-Cambria County Airport, but I was thinking it was even more absurd than Murtha.

They built a huge one outside of St Louis (IL side) and I don’t think any commercial carriers use it.

For those playing at home, if they are considering another round of production cuts after last fall's cuts and prices are level or actually falling since then, then the global economy is in a slowdown and has been for quite some time.

PGA is expensive. They won't have a slowdown. If only we were energy independent...
