Cool Zappa track.

Stupid thread.....

See how Obama minions flounder without being fed instructions?

Obama and Liz "High Cheekbones" Warren both claim that infrastructure was responsible for great American advances, I'm asking how is it that other nations with similar infrastructure.and for thousands of years longer than us, didn't come to build the automobile, for example.

I'd be interested to see how you would run a successful business without roads or bridges.

 

[BlindBoo]

In the 1920's roads and bridges were ubiquitous. Every country had roads and/or bridges and the vast majority of truly great civilizations had both roads and bridges.

Somehow, and just in the USA, roads and bridges were responsible for the development of the automobile.

Can someone switch on their Obama Context Filter and walk us through how roads and bridges in the USA were responsible for the development of the automobile?

Without roads and bridges of what use is an automobile?

All these other nations had roads and bridges, some for thousands of years yet the auto is a uniquely American invention.

How'd that happen?

Sorry champ the auto was invented in Germany.

Exactly how did US roads and bridges build the first auto?

Who said they did? Do you have a credible Obama quote of such?

Um yeah. Cuba and North Korea have roads and bridges too, not many good running along those roads.

Canada and Mexico have roads and bridges and together their economies are 1/5 that of the USA. Roads? Si! Bridges? Si! 20% the goods and services of the USA? eh?

I can't figure it out, other countries have roads and bridges but they don't have an economy nearly as large as the USA....gee, I wonder why that is?

Obama is on record saying business owners didn't built it, somebody else did. I don't have a clue who he was talking about, maybe you can shed some light?

From listening to your explanation of Obama through the Context Filter.

I hate to break it to you, Frankie, but the USA's investment in infrastructure also included investing in the industrial aspects of the country.

But you didn't answer my question.

Chicken and egg argument? How did the first villages and towns develop if man is an individual and needs no one else to prosper?

How does that justify soaking the rich?

 

[bripat9643]

No thanks. I already have a 'CLUE' as to what the WPA was all about and the Socialist intent.

Not to mention Roosevelt wasn't president in 1931 when the dam was commissioned...

What a moonbat... that must be a picture of him in his Avitar.

Try again dipshit. There had been planning for the dam for decades that never went anywhere, until FDR put the american people to work to build it.

Not to mention most of the roads we still drive on today.

It's surprising (and pathetic) that so many right wingers don't even know basic elementary school history

Wrong, dipshit.

Hoover Dam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Since about 1900, the Black Canyon and nearby Boulder Canyon had been investigated for their potential to support a dam that would control floods, provide irrigation water and produce hydroelectric power. In 1928, Congress authorized the project. The winning bid to build the dam was submitted by a consortium called Six Companies, Inc., which began construction on the dam in early 1931

You just make stuff up, don't you?

 

[bripat9643]

the TVA was created and added tons of jobs as well as many other projects under FDR

I hear he also invented the McNugget which still today provides fine eating to culinary challenged!

educate yourself soggy...pretty please...

the New Deal ring a bell?

1. CCC - Civilian Conservation Corps

The Civilian Conservation Corps was created in 1933 by Franklin D. Roosevelt to combat unemployment. This work relief program had the desired effect and provided jobs for many Americans during the Great Depression. The CCC was responsible for building many public works and created structures and trails in parks across the nation.

2. CWA - Civil Works Administration

The Civil Works Administration was created in 1933 to create jobs for the unemployed. Its focus on high paying jobs in the construction arena resulted in a much greater expense to the federal government than originally anticipated. The CWA ended in 1934 in large part due to opposition to its cost.
3. FHA - Federal Housing Administration

The Federal Housing Administration was a government agency created to combat the housing crisis of the Great Depression. The large number of unemployed workers combined with the banking crisis created a situation in which banks recalled loans. The FHA was designed to regulate mortgages and housing conditions.
4. FSA - Federal Security Agency

The Federal Security Agency established in 1939 had the responsibility for several important government entities. Until it was abolished in 1953, it administered social security, federal education funding, and food and drug safety.
5. HOLC - Home Owner's Loan Corporation

The Home Owner's Loan Corporation was created in 1933 to assist in the refinancing of homes. The housing crisis created a great many foreclosures, and Franklin Roosevelt hoped this new agency would stem the tide. In fact, between 1933 and 1935 one million people received long term loans through the agency that saved their homes from foreclosure.
6. NRA - National Recovery Act

The National Recovery Act was designed to bring the interests of working class Americans and business together. Through hearings and government intervention the hope was to balance the needs of all involved in the economy. However, the NRA was declared unconstitutional in the landmark Supreme Court case Schechter Poultry Corp. v. US. The Supreme Court ruled that the NRA violated the separation of powers.
7. PWA - Public Works Administration

The Public Works Administration was a program created to provide economic stimulus and jobs during the Great Depression. The PWA was designed to create public works and continued until the US ramped up wartime production for World War II. It ended in 1941.
8. SSA - Social Security Act

The Social Security Act was designed to combat the widespread poverty among senior citizens. The government program provided income to retired wage earners. The program has become one of the most popular government programs and is funded by current wage earners and their employers. However, in recent years concerns have arisen about the viability of continuing to fund the program as the Baby Boom generation reaches retirement age.

9. TVA - Tennessee Valley Authority

The Tennessee Valley Authority was established in 1933 to develop the economy in the Tennessee Valley region which had been hit extremely hard by the Great Depression. The TVA was and is a federally owned corporation that works in this region to this day. It is the largest public provider of electricity in the United States.
10. WPA - Works Progress Administration

The Works Progress Administration was created in 1935. As the largest New Deal Agency, the WPA impacted millions of Americans. It provided jobs across the nation. Because of it, numerous roads, buildings, and other projects were completed. It was renamed the Works Projects Administration in 1939. It officially ended in 1943.

Well your question is idiotic and I was thinking you were going to come back and change it to something less retarded.

We have roads and bridges, we are not unique in that respect. Many other nations alos have these "Roads and bridges" that you Obama and Liz "High Cheekbones" Warren never stop telling us about, yet we have the worlds #1 economy.

Maybe there's some mysterious force at work other than "roads and bridges"?

The countries you've held up for comparative purposes (Mexico, etc.) don't invest in their infrastructure to the extent we do in America.

You are trying to make some point and failing badly.

Canada has more than twice as many roads per capita.

Here's a little definition for you. btw, Canada is a successful country (of course in part because we are their neighbor).

Infrastructure

2. The basic facilities, services, and installations needed for the functioning of a community or society, such as transportation and communications systems, water and power lines, and public institutions including schools, post offices, and prisons.

Now which of the countries that you keep pretending should be as successful as the USA invests in infrastructure like we do?

 

[TakeAStepBack]

A rare good post from Frank though a failed "bash the left" attempt.

Henry Ford was one of the pioneers of offering hard working americans an honest job for fair pay. He took the automobile from a luxury that only the very wealthy could afford, to ones that the average american could.During those days it was still dirt roads with horse and buggy still competing with them.

It wasn't until the revolutionary FDR came into office from years of right wing destruction creating the great depression. From there FDR knew what made a great america, the people of this great land. They needed help in which he put the american people to work when they needed it the most to beautify america by create the roads and much of the infrastructure we still enjoy today.

This happens with every single piece of innovation since the beginning of innovation. Same thing happened with horse carts. Same thing happened with silverware. Same thing happened with computers. Same thing happened with refrigerators. Same thing happened with mobile phones. This is how economics work.



Eisenhower is the one who spilled budget money on building highways. FDR did nothing but fucking trap the American public in a never ending debt mountian with his new deal policies that he stacked the supreme court to attain.

FAIL.
