Quote:No money for roads, bridges, highways, rural broadband, or an electrical grid that doesn't go down in a brisk wind. Can't afford it.

Too bad, vets. Thanks for your service, but your application for disability or need for health care has to wait. You know, we can't afford it.

I could go on, but this would get too long.

Those are the messages that people have been getting for decades, yet when it comes to war, surveillance, special interests, or the Pentagon, there's always PLENTY of money. Bomb, bomb, bomb and bomb some more. Plenty of funding for tanks, warships, military equipment, and anything else the Pentagon desires.
