2. The problem I've always had with construction on streets is that
they never do one area then move on, they try to do 7 different places at once but only work on one area causing tons more gridlock then there should be. If they worked on one expressway finished it fast then moved on the next, it would work so much better.

3. That pretty much sums up the attitude of so many people:
They complain about potholes.

They complain about paying taxes to fix potholes.

They complain about traffic delays during the repair of potholes.

4. So, neighbor, would you like to have a unfixed road collapse on your car?
Or sewers being burst in the open?

5. Well, true: the drivers of the cars that fell into the Mississippi River in Minneapolis ...
didn't have to sit in traffic any more. ;-)

8. In fairness, they do tend to tear up the roads and never finish them.
In a lot of places. Not everywhere.

9. Wasn't it fixed already? 700 billion+ stimulus?
That's what I was sold on, anyway.
Guess the money went somewhere else.
