Won’t get that far since too many large corporations (Walmart, etc.) are very dependent on a working transportation network to get goods to market and make their tidy profit.

Yeah, but don’t tell the “small government” types, who are absolutely convinced that those roads would exist even without government efforts and government money, because businesses would have built them on their own.

Basically, you have to be so disconnected from reality that you believe that the majority of the last century was an aberration, and that the “free market” would have done all of that on its own, just to a better quality and a lower price.

I tried to make sense of it a long time back, but my head doesn’t fit that far up my ass.
