$1.2 Trillion Infrastructure Spending- Name One Project

I can’t see one specific thing the money is to be spent on. Just the generic “highways” “bridges” etc.

Where’s the itemized list? They came up with the dollar amount, based upon what?

Which bridges?
Which highways?
What’s their project dates?

The Democrat "infrastructure" bill will make the greedy corrupt Democrat politicians $millionaires$ with kick-back deals.
 
It makes no difference.
Sure it does, when the government spends for people, the entire country benefits, they get jobs and spend $$$, at small businesses, who get their products from big businesses and keeps everything rolling.

When you give corporations tax cuts, supposedly to create jobs, like the GOP has claimed since Reagan, they don't, it goes to a select few.

President Trump kicked off his holiday weekend at Mar-a-Lago Friday night at a dinner where he told friends, "You all just got a lot richer," referencing the sweeping tax overhaul he signed into law hours earlier. Mr. Trump directed those comments to friends dining nearby at the exclusive club.

The president has spent many weekends of his presidency so far at the "Winter White House," where initiation fees cost $200,000, annual dues cost $14,000, and some of the most affluent members of society have the opportunity to interact with the president in a setting while many Americans cannot.

The White House promised '70 percent' of the tax cut would go to workers. It didn't.

President Donald Trump signed the bill in December last year, saying the corporate tax cut would make it favorable for companies to bring back into the U.S. cash stashed in foreign operations.

Over the past year, S&P 500 companies have given their shareholders a record $1 trillion in the form of buybacks and dividends, led by Apple, Cisco Systems, and other technology giants.

Stock repurchases hit nearly $190 billion in the first quarter for the S&P 500, according to preliminary results from S&P Dow Jones Indices. The last time that record was set was just before the Great Recession, when companies bought up almost $172 billion of buybacks.

The GQP are dead set against 'trickle up' economics.
 
Yeah, that $5 trillion you put kids in debt for will go a long way towards what kind of future they’ll have.
Nothing, compared to the GQP gave to the Military Industrial Complex.

$647 billion for 2017
$683 billion for 2018
$731 billion for 2019
$738 billion for 2020

Biden's infrastructure $ 1.75 trillion plan will be spread out over 10 years.
Trump spent twice that in four.
Let alone his $2.3 trillion in corporate tax breaks.

Nothing compared to the debt Trump added in four years.
On President Trump's first day in office (January 2017), the total debt load of the nation was $19.947 trillion.
The United States currently has $27.68 trillion in total debt.
So, over the course of a little less than 4 years, the United States added roughly $7.733 trillion in debt.

Just before the COVID-19 pandemic started in the United States, the national debt load of the country was $23.442 trillion. So, despite the relatively strong economy, the country had still added $3.5 trillion in debt.
 
All of which is nonsense....Buttigeau is already personally approving "projects" especially those that relate to equity (black neighborhoods) to move hwy etc. It's a money giveaway and like with Obama's shovel ready projects nothing for taxpayers---just more debt. Buttigeau will be super rich after this as well.
I agree, your post is nonsense, as usual.
 
It's a slush fund that will make Buttigeau rich and he will never have to show up to work.
Nothing like Mnuchin's slush fund.

March 22 2020
The White House on Sunday reportedly refused to back down from its demand that a coronavirus relief package include $500 billion, which would be provided to corporations at the discretion of Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.

June 11 2020
U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told Congress Wednesday that the Trump administration intends to keep secret the names of the businesses that have received more than $500 billion in COVID-19 bailout funds through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), claiming the information is “confidential.”

Time to put a gun to the heads of Germany and Japan and demand repayments then. Or face foreclosure.
Since you’re worried about money in one tiny sector.

ONE tiny sector?
That soaks up an enormous amount of $$$ every year.

Defense spending by the United States increased by $44 billion from 2019 to 2020.
That increase outstripped growth in spending from other countries, and as a result, the United States now spends more on defense than the next 11 countries combined (up from outspending the next 10 countries combined in 2019).

As a percentage of the country’s GDP, China’s average infrastructure spending in 2018 was 10 times higher than that of the United States.

March 5, 2021

The annual meeting of the National People’s Congress (NPC) began on Friday, March 5, in Beijing. Like previous years, the first day of the new NPC session was highlighted by the widely anticipated announcement of China’s 2021 defense budget, which was set at 1.36 trillion yuan, a 6.8 percent increase from the 1.27 trillion yuan budget set last year. The new budget amounts to $209.16 billion based on the current exchange rate. Monitoring China’s defense budget provides critical insights into the ongoing modernization of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

3 times as low as the US spends.
