What about the sustaining loop of having dependable roads upon which to go to your job? What about having dependable national vectors of delivery? Once the work is done, it's done -- I agree. But that doesn't mean the work stops yielding economic benefits.

OK, we could use some roads patched up. When I drove through the east coast some years back, I couldn't believe how poorly the roads were maintained compared to the Northwest.

Still, the current jobs in government are not sustainable without more revenue. For more revenue, we need more tax payers. There are not enough rich to soak. Even if you could soak the rich for 100% of their income and wealth, it gets you nowhere compared to how big government spending has become.

Without addressing the root problem of jobs migrating to Asia and other countries, we are simply doomed and the globes wealthiest nation. We will all hurt. Not just the poor, whose jobs went to Asia. We have a serious trade deficit. It used to be just a concern, but now, it is threatening our way of life.

"There are not enough rich to soak."

Roll back all of dubya's tax cuts, roll back St Ronnie's capital gains tax cut, cut $200B from DoD, kill loopholes for corps, and stop both wars. Plenty of money for govt and Human-Americans to have a dignified, financially secure lives.

Policies, pushed mostly from VRWC/conservatives/Repugs, not market forces or Acts of God, have screwed up American, policies can be unscrewed.

Yes Boutons, we know. You will never agree corporations have the same rights as a person until Perry executes one.
