Comments by "whyamimrpink78" (@whyamimrpink78) on "Dems To Trump: I Thought You Said You Were For Infrastructure??" video.
What was in this proposal? Moving dirt is not productive. What Trump is doing is removing a lot of government waste which what has been happening for years. Jobs are easy to create, wealth is much harder to create.

Why is our infrastructure so bad? Maybe because the same politicians have been using it as a piss poor excuse to create jobs. Jobs are easy to create, wealth isn't. That has been the problem for years with our government, it just creates jobs, not wealth. That is what Trump is pushing to change. The democrats are just playing politics here with this bill. Let me ask you, why do you think our infrastructure is so bad? And who has been in charged of it so long?

Liberal logic: Our infrastructure which was built and ran by the government is bad. So a bunch of established democrats propose a bill to "improve" it. So it must work this time. Reality is that Trump is pushing to change that idea. The government has been involved in the infrastructure for years, why do you feel that the established democrats actually have a bill that will work this time?

The Dragon, he said government spending, not government wasting.

"Are you saying that the infrastructure in the USA is all A-OK then?" For the most part it is.

In reality most infrastructure is ran and funded at the state and local level to begin with. So look there. " because of republicans obstructing" More lame excuses.

Reality Forge, there you are with the "EVIL CORPORATIONS" talking point. Fun fact: Before the EPA air quality was improving Fun fact: Before OSHA work related deaths were dropping.

"So what do you think is proper government "spending" on infrastructure? " That all depends. That is why I support more local government because with that the people can see if they are getting their money's worth on government spending. At the federal level you end up having waste and bureaucracy. Federal dollars were spent to build the St. Louis Arch. Did that really benefit the people of NY or FL? No. Leave infrastructure spending to the states and local governments.

" why is republican obstruction a lame excuse" Because democrats have had plenty of times when they had control, such as in 2009.

Well to start private roads are better, also, 3/4 of funding for roads come from the state and local government, so as a whole Trump has little say on roads. But tell me, why do you always point towards roads?

3/4 of funding for roads comes from the state and local level. " Is that what anyone wants? Let me answer that: No." How do you know? Ever been on toll roads. They are amazing. "ince when or how did anything private like roads done better by corporate vultures who care in making profit " All the time. " Last time I checked, the Golden Gate is still there" Last time I check you have to pay a toll to drive on it when you are entering San Fran. Same with the Bay Bridge.

"Yes, and the pay toll goes Public Works to directly maintain the public infrastructure. As opposed to going to the pockets of banksters." Like with any toll road. The same thing was with the Turnpike in Kansas. That road is amazing. Nice and smooth and you can go over 75 on it. "BTW, you still haven't addressed the shoddy pipelines constructed by private companies." What pipelines?
