Infrastructure good. GOP bad.

For those of you who have been living in a closet, Joe Biden is working on a bill that would renovate this country's crumbling bridges, roads, water works,power grids, public buildings, etc. while creating the millions of jobs required for the task. Who'll pay for all this? Why, taxes on the rich, of course. This is something very similar to FDR's New Deal,which created jobs for millions of Americans and pulled the US out of the Great Depression. It worked back then and it'll work now. In fact, it makes perfect sense. So why don't Republican legislators like it? First, because it wasn't their idea. Second, because there's nothing in it for THEM. Republican legislators' version of infrastructure is: they would allow the individual state governments to handle it (a piecemeal approach and a recipe for disaster: how many corporations would be involved in renovating highways that cross several states?). Middle income taxpayers like you and me would foot the bill and the rich would get off the hook. As usual, private companies would bid on government contracts for these projects--which would run a bigger risk than usual of NOT being awarded on merit.Because companies offering GOP politicians the biggest bribes and kickbacks would be the ones winning the contracts. Unregulated, they would pay their workers poverty wages and use procedural shortcuts and shoddy construction materials to save money, thereby endangering the public. THAT is infrastructure, GOP style. Support the Biden bill.
