With a badly needed $17 Trillion US just for maintenance of the existing USA's infrastructure, it's not looking good.
That's not even taking into account for the future infrastructure to be build in the US, but the US can't afford it. (hence, Trump is eager to sell off any new infrastructure building deals to foreign investors, that means you pay toll for over a century to use it to these foreign companies)
But "the $17 Trillion is alot you say", nope, not in reality, it's just to get your current infrastructure from a D- status to a B- status, so nothing fancy, just badly needed maintenance and it's gone.
We aren't even talking about the waterways and water protection infrastructure, the amount needed will bankrupt the USA, unless, you stop building silly and overly expensive Military equipment and the exorbitantly expensive maintenance for overseas bases aka toys for the Generals and insecure populist politicians.
The USA seems more preoccupied with the building of an US/Mexican wall costing $2 Trillion US to keep out imaginary foes then it is to invest into protecting it's citizens from the damage mother nature can and definitely will do if these badly needed investments don't come quick to were they are actually needed.
Building a $1 Trillion US costing experimental Navy Warship shows were the politicians and Military priorities are, sadly, it's not with you, not anywhere close even.
Voting does have its consequences in reality,.....some are deadly.
