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

[G.T.]

• I drive nearly every day on unpaved, dirt paths. It doesn't effect my day in any capacity whether it's dirt or pavement and the idiot liberal has been incapable so far in explaining their obsession with pointing out "roads" as an excuse for their socialism.
  
  
• Liberals sound like children with Down Syndrome. "We have woads". Ok? Good. Good. But what does that have to do with a businesses success? "We have woads". Yes, I know we do. But what difference does that make? "We have woads". Look - your defeating yourself here. Since everybody has access to those same roads, wouldn't everybody be successful multi-millionaire business owners if roads had anything to do with anything?!? "We have woads". Ugh!!! Go watch Barney. "Otay.... We have woads".
  
  
• Liberals can't even understand that roads are built by local government with local taxes while we're discussing the federal government. Their argument is so weak and pathetic, they can't even make one for the level of government we're discussing.
  
  
• Liberals also can't imagine being self-reliant. If government doesn't care for and coddle them like an infant, they fear they would die (and they probably would as lazy as they are). It's beyond their capacity to comprehend us conservatives that are self-reliant and will succeed out of sheer will, regardless of the circumstances. We would never let a little thing like no road stop our prosperity. We'd just drive right over the grass/dirt/rocks/etc. (gasp! imagine that?!?!?)
  
  
• Liberals are killing themselves with the dumbest argument ever. If it wasn't for government and roads creating prosperity, how do they explain how we even got there? There were no paved roads in 1776. And there was no government either when we declared our independence from England. And yet all we did was thrive into the most prosperous nation in world history. It was businesses, without roads or government that paid the taxes which built the roads that you know obsess over like children with Down Symmdrome!

I know, I know....... "we have woads". That's all you can say and that is all you will respond with.

^ this is stupidity in attempt to call out stupidity. Congratulations.

I think the point is, infrastructure increases the ability for Customers to patron your Business knuckle-head.

In other words, you can't dispute one thing I just said...

Somehow, businesses were "patronized" all through the 1700's and all through the 1800's.... knuckle-head. And you know what? We didn't surrender freedoms to communism/marxism/socialism/fascism back then.

Businesses were patronized in the 1700's therefore roads don't help patrons get to businesses current day? Great logic, Socrates.

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?

Karl Benz of Germany invented the automobile. You're an idiot. You need to be quiet for awhile and contemplate the merits of not being publicly stupid on a daily basis.

In his defense, he knows that he's stupid and doesn't do it in public, only on anonymous messageboards.

When he met up with Sallow, he didn't call him a stupid commie liberal nazi who wants to secretly destroy the Country.......................to his face.

Oh really? Businesses in Boston were "patronized" by suppliers in California and Mexico?

Ah, so since you were proven WRONG, you now move the conversation to "California and Mexico"...

And YES - in fact they were, stupid.

As a person of compassion, I'm going to suggest you quit now before embarassing yourself further. Just accept the truth - the world spins just fine with or without government paved roads. If you want to make the case for full communist, government control, you're going to have to do better than "we have woads"

The point is that commerce is faster and more efficient with roads than it is with gravel and dirt, dipshit. Jesus christ.

Lol! Yes, with no efficient means of transport save sending things in a boat around the tip of South America, goods and services easily reached Boston from California. That's why, When Eisenhower observed the Autobahn he thought "we can save some bucks by just shipping our equipment on dirt roads"

Speaking of quitting before you embarrass yourself: Tell us more about how dirt roads and paved roads are equally easy for transport.

Funny - I've driven my Hummer just as fast off road as I have on paved roads. Do the engines on other vehicles somehow know there is not concrete beneath their tires and throttle down?

Like I said, please stop. I feel sorry for you. You are really embarassing yourself desperately trying to win an argument in which you are on the wrong side of the facts.

Road are nice - but they have NOTHING to do with the success of a business. If they did, then everyone would be a wealthy entreprenuer because everybody has access to the roads. And, we have successful entreprenuer's long before we ever had our first road. Your argument simpy doesn't hold up (and you liberals know it too - it's just that you're that desperate).

Want to keep going, stupid? Because you are getting your ass whipped in this discussion. Vehicles drive just as fast on paved roads as they do on dirt or grass and that is a FACT...

Aside from your retardedness about how grass and dirt are as easy to travel for cars as roads are.............I'm not even entertaining that part of your post cuz it's uber-dumb...


But the part I highlighted is the crux of stupidity. It blatantly shows that you can't think past your nose.

Nobody said roads make a business successful - and the fact that nobody did, makes your point about "then everyone would be a wealthy entrepreneur" just plain fucking dumb.

What they're saying, for idiots like you and Frank who need it spelled out for you.............

Is that roads are a CONTRIBUTING FACTOR to a successful business. Not the SOLE FACTOR, which is how someone with not too many brain-cells would take the statements.

Congratulations on being about as bright as an 8 year old.

Yes, and if we all drove hummers and never encountered traffic and cared not a wit for the life of our suspension systems and didn't need to drive 18 wheelers you might have a point.

Road are nice - but they have NOTHING to do with the success of a business.

Lol...right. Having an efficient means of transporting goods, services and inputs doesn't reduce the cost of production and increase output.

OK then.

And the PREDOMINANT FACTOR, G.T., is the individual himself which is why the nonsense that Obama spewed is so ridiculous. Everyone had some good teachers, everyone had roads and bridges but the individual who had the dream, the guts to put everything on the line to make a business come true is what made the difference for entreprenuers.

They worked longer hours, put up their life savings and usually put up all of their assets to make their dream come to fruition. As a result it became a promise for jobs to others...that make the difference in todays economy.

What he "spewed" wasn't ridiculous, only if you're being a dishonest cynic.

He wasn't denying that the successful individuals in this country didn't bust ass above most others, in order to achieve their goal.

You only extrapolate that from his comments if you're being a dishonest cynic.

His point was, that we should all appreciate the greatness of our Country which *did* help with our success - be it a teacher, roads, student loans, business loans, etc. and that Government isn't always some big bad anti-business monster.

That was his point, and it's all true.

To extrapolate from that: "the successful dont work hard and have nothing to do with their own success" is just being a dishonest partisan cynic. That's just reality.

Your problem, well one of them anyway, is that you refuse to deal with what Warren and Obama actually said.

"You built a factory out there? Good for you. But I want to be clear: You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for; you hired workers the rest of us paid to educate; you were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory, and hire someone to protect against this, because of the work the rest of us did." -- Liz Warren

"Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business – you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen." Barry Soetoro (Aka Barack Obama)
