Tolling Interstates to Rebuild Them

WTF are you talking about? Over 1/3 of the stimulus was tax cuts. Close to a similar amount went to state and local governments to stay open.

Under $100B went to infrastructure. the problem was the stimulus was way too small. Since the GOP in the House has killed a Senate passed (78-22) infrastructure bill.

Occasionally get your facts right.

Not surprsingly, he of the forked tongue spun it differently at the time:

Remarks of President-Elect Barack Obama
As Prepared for Delivery
American Recovery and Reinvestment

"To build an economy that can lead this future, we will begin to rebuild America. Yes, we'll put people to work repairing crumbling roads, bridges, and schools by eliminating the backlog of well-planned, worthy and needed infrastructure projects."

you make no sense.
 
There is nothing wrong with thinking this would have been a great program to be run under the stimulus.

That's not lying. it was part of the bill.

As FU says, you make no sense.
