Matthew ya I am talking to you and one of your favorite subjects. You fail to understand how it comes about and that failing in thinking is a great flaw. Now this is NOT a flame but merely trying to explain to someone born AFTER all the major infrastructure had been built.
Infrastructure does NOT come from merely raising taxes and as a matter of fact that is a very quick way to fail. Infrastructure comes from money raised by production. A lot of us have either lived next to or worked someplace where a simple dirt road was Infrastructure.
Paved roads seldom if ever led the way, companies did. Even big companies like "Ma Bell" had offices out in the middle of no where with giant dirt parking lots. As they grew larger and hired more people the increase in the tax base brought concrete roads. Major cities at the time were paved in brick, that improvement was able to be done because American's production increased.
What you are building on now is UN-secured debt. And you double at least its insecurity when you regulate/mandate and tax it out of production. And you have another problem you have trained the buyer to think cheap NOT quality. Durable goods are no longer durable, they are cheap and have the life span of a cheap item.
I used to have a 1953 International Harvester fridge in my shop. My buddy had a General Motors fridge from that same era. Durable goods is not just a name, it WAS an American standard.
I guess what I am trying to tell you Mutt is government NEVER brought you Infrastructure, Companies and working people did.
