America in Ruins

Let me see if I get it together: “Private is good, public is bad. Private is good, because we care for what we own. Public is bad, because everything gets wasted.” Oh well, a recent report about America’s infrastructure (I heard it on Georgia Public Radio Jan 29, 2009 but was unable to find an online link) gave the nation a D (and Georgia a C). And, as the spokesperson of the surveying engineering association emphasized, this has to be addressed, economic crisis or not. Thank you to all those who have plundered and wasted our public funds for huge tax giveaways and unnecessary wars over the last eight years instead of providing for healthcare and a decent infrastructure! You have done a wonderful job, now please go and hide.
