That's your beef...and you're crazyI oppose all of it. However, here are a few sections that I despise the most
- $65 billion for broadband. We don't need it. Wifi will soon be available everywhere. It would be fhar cheaper to give poor people a subscription to Skylink than pay for this boondoggle
- 55 billion for water systems. That's deliberately vague. There's no doubt that a lot of boondoggles are hiding behind that language
- $66 billion for passenger and freight rail and $39 billion for public transit. - public transit is always a boondoggle. Rail freight pays for itself. Why do we need to give these companies taxpayer money? Amtrak is a boondoggle. High speed rails is good at one thing: losing huge amounts of money.
- $7.5 billion for EV charging stations. Elon Musk is already planning on building tens of thousands of charging stations. This is a total waste of money.
Not everyone is as nutty as you
