stuff like road construction, school repair, new infrastructure, and anything else they can spend 30,000 dollars on a wrench or 1.2 million for a toilet on...

Jarrett, please dont be so naive to think that this "infrastructure" money isnt just more unregulated and untracable pork, just like the bank bailout was...

Please use that Notre Dame education to actually think for yourself - Or maybe you're just what ND is putting out nowadays... pitiful...

We DESPERATELY need infrastructure spending.  Did the MN bridge collapse escape you somehow?

Everyone knows the bridge collapse was caused by Jimmy Carter and Community Reinvestment Act (and Barney Frank and minorities).

Don't try and use that tragedy to push for socialist taxes. That's MY MONEY you want to spend hippie!

Its still"pork", Jarrett - its the government spending money it simply does not have! I won't disagree that we need infrastructure improvement in this country, but you know as well as I do that not even a third of this TRILLION dollars is actually going to benefit the people - it is simply going to "disappear" into the big corporations and politicians pockets... As always... :)

And you have produced no ideas as to how to prevent "money disappearing into corporate pockets," but have already mentioned Obama's measures to ensure as little as possible of this money is wasted.

Your doublethink intrigues me.
