Yeah, conservatives are probably right. We don't need an infrastructure bill...

[struth]

What specifically are you pointing too?

the over 80 percent that didn’t have anything to do with infrusturture

 

[Billiejeens]

It's rather coincidental that a bridge collapses in the same state, just a couple of hours before Biden is scheduled to give a speech on infrastructure.

Almost 100% that it was deep state.

However, they're wrong.

Wonder how the Congressional delegation from PA voted on the bills.

So the Democratic shithole did not maintain their bridge?

 

[otto105]

Their bridges aren't falling down.

MO had a bridge for you. Shit was falling off it and it had to close.

And that is.....?

They couldn't keep the fucking bridge up with all the money PA taxpayers pay now, so let's force taxpayers of other states to throw more money at the problem.

That's the only solution liberals know, take money from taxpayers and throw it at all problems.

Is MO MS or WV?

 

[struth]

What does Mississippi and West Virginia do with their tax monies?
They have the worst infrastructure in the country

did their bridges fall apart when the president came to visit?

Why the fuck are red state so awful at paying for their shit.

Bridges in Missouri and Kansas are falling apart. How much will they get to fix them?

Like Pennsylvania, their representatives voted against funding that is desperately needed by their state

When their bridges fail, they can also ask their elected representatives why they didn’t support the bill

Pennsylvania has the highest gasoline taxes in the country. Even higher than California.

On the way to his pre-scheduled speech at Mill 19 in Hazelwood, Biden visited the collapse site where he met with local and state officials, including Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, who braved the below-freezing temperatures wearing shorts.

During the short visit, Biden said he hadn’t known that Pittsburgh had more bridges than any city in the world, and vowed to “fix them all.”

Fetterman be da man!

a September 2019 inspection of the city-owned bridge revealed the deck and superstructure to be in poor condition, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Bridge Inventory. A spreadsheet on the state Department of Transportation website listed the bridge’s overall condition as poor, which, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, means “deterioration of primary structural elements has advanced.”

And already being described as a thing of the past:

The Fern Hollow Bridge was an American bridge in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that carried Forbes Avenue over Frick Park. The bridge opened in 1973 and collapsed on January 28, 2022.

The Federal Government has no mandate or legitimate power to spend federal funds on non-interstate highways, bridges, or other infrastructure.

I'd be interested in a photo of the size of the crowd attending this speech, if anyone can find one.

The occasional, faint applaud sounded rather.....oh...lacking? Not sure if they had a teleprompter directing them to/when to applaud or not, as they sometimes do at these types of events.

I heard they painted at least four circles on the ground, but that may have been overly optimistic.

Sure they do…

Pay each laborer upset
