A trillion dollar infrastructure plan...

[kyzr]

The albatross hanging on the establishment of both parties is the $14-trillion of lost value that the stock market lost in the 2008 Great Recession. Both parties were at fault. We're slowly getting out of the hole, and don't want to risk that loss again. The GOP had better be careful how they loosen regulations like Dodd-Frank or they will be a tiny minority for a long long time. We need to find a party that we can trust to govern, and we're still looking...
The $$$-trillion infrastructure plan, if done correctly, such as public bids, has minimal pork, since the funding is privately managed. Its like we hire a contractor to design and build a house, and then pay a mortgage. The states and Feds then split the mortgage. So we need to come up with future money, like a border adjustment tax to fund the projects.

You continue to perpetuate this lie. If that is the case why don't you offer some substantive proof, huh?

As you wish

Proper graph for the delusional..............as Obama used the new ZERO POINT in the graph to show how great he was............................Lose massive jobs......RE ZERO THE STATISTICS............and beat chest and say LOOK WHAT I DID.......................

Bottom line............a fucking child could have made better use of that 787 billion money

That was the stimulus impact on GDP
Let's look at the stock market....shall we?

Shall I remind you that EVERY Republican voted against stimulus?

Openly dumped money into the Markets leaving the bill for doing so to the American people.................

Then lowered the rates to virtually ZERO.............

BUBBLE MACHINE.................to the same asshats that caused collapse.....................while they took money behind the scenes from the Federal Reserve...........

then paid back the BS bailout loans with the money they got from the back door of the Federal Reserve.................

The MAFIA WOULD BE PROUD.

Dumped?

Led to 4.5 Trillion increase in wealth......quite an investment payback

“We offered to work together. We offered our own infrastructure plan to the [White House] to spark discussion. Months passed. We heard nothing back,” Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) tweeted Friday. “Now the few details we have of [Trump’s] plan show it’s private-sector driven, has minimal investment & ignores huge sectors of infrastructure.”--https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/multiple-transit-projects-across-us-at-risk-as-white-house-infrastructure-plan-falters/2017/06/09/0becb67c-4c8b-11e7-a186-60c031eab644_story.html?utm_term=.29690099546b

Obama tried for eight years to get investment in infrastructure
Republicans mocked it as pork

Trump is trying to spend a trillion dollars selling off our infrastructure to private investors

So you saying that 800 billon was useless on shovel ready jobs?

Hey we got some nice signs out of the tool though..

.

That and a failed solar company. His buddies got their pockets full of goodies though. Thats all that counts.

It took California about three weeks to figure it out. The South is still looking for their lost clues and lost Cause.

California is the U.S. leader in clean energy and sits high atop world market too, report says

California wouldn't exist without crude or natural gas. Wind and sun are supplemental at best.

California is the Golden State. Yes, it would exist. Besides, it is about, staying on "top of the curve" in emerging new technology markets.

 

[danielpalos]

Supposedly that's on Trump's agenda. Good idea, depending on the details.

Do you Trump supporters support that? Do you support paying for it?

I always support infrastructure investment from either party

I am not crazy about Trumps idea to sell off our roads to private investors

He got bailout money..............gave it to his buddies on BS..................said shovel ready and shoveled it to corrupt ass political donors and their buddies.........

Bailed out states.........................It was Crap...........he and the rest of the Swamp can't be trusted with anything anymore.

What are the official, U3 numbers?

 

[danielpalos]

We know what needs to be fixed...............It's been reported for decades now on Water and Sewage Problems......Bridges......Dams.........Levies that are in desperate need of repair and replacement.............Some of which if they fail would put entire cities under water............In California should a earthquake hit the levies there the people of California wouldn't have any dang water left..............

But no..........they handed the damned money out like candy to their PET PROJECTS and Buddies..............

Let me repeat............WE CAN NOT TRUST THE GOVT. ANYMORE.

...in the mean time, we legalized pot and expect around a billion in revenue.

Reversed an economic collapse and prevented a depression

Baloney.................they took the money from the back door of the Federal Reserve..................took a Supreme Court Ruling to do so...........and not a freaking peep from the Media about it................

You can't trust the Media anymore nor the damned politicians in office anymore........both sides..............

The boy that cried wolf................I'm not listening anymore.

We did not have a Great Depression.

As long as there aren't 7,000+ pieces of pork, we aren't paying to teach more alcoholic Chinese hookers how to drink more responsibly on the job, aren't funding more studies as to why gay Argentinian men have better sex lives than straight American men - all of which was in Obama's failed Stinulus Bill - and the money is actually used for its intended purpose, I would support it.

all talk and no action, right wingers; end the drug war.

The GAO's final report on Obama's JOBS Bill stated all that pork and waste in the bill cost tax payers approx $747,000 PER JOB CREATED / SAVED.

Obama's administration was caught cooking the books, claiming more jobs saved / created than there were actual jobs....which means it actually cost tax payers MORE than $747,00 per job.

Thank you so much, Barry, for 'SAVING' us.

Bwuhahahahaha...

What are the current, U3 numbers?

Any gov't official who voted for this or allowed this type of spending should be fired.

I HATE TOLLS!!!!! We pay enough in taxes, raise the fucking gas tax and eliminate all TOLLS!!

There is a toll highway in Kansas that was supposed to end in the 70's when the highway paid for itself. It's still a toll road today in 2017

There is no better time to float infrastructure bonds. With rates at one or two percent, it is almost like free money.
Not to mention the jobs it would create

The $4.2 Trillion Dilemma | Weekly Economic Commentary | April 10, 2017 - Manchester Investments

HOW DID WE GET HERE?

In order to decrease supply in the market and push interest rates lower, the Fed has purchased more than $4.2 trillion of bonds ($2.46 trillion in Treasury notes and $1.75 trillion in mortgage-backed securities) since 2008 through multiple QE programs. Although the latest QE program in the U.S. ended more than two years ago (October 2014), these holdings, known as the Fed’s balance sheet, have remained stable. The Fed has rolled proceeds from maturing bonds into new purchases, keeping the size of the Fed’s balance sheet relatively constant over the past few years, and also likely keeping rates slightly lower than they otherwise would be.

We are putting Billions into BS.................and nothing into this.

Water Main Break Clock

We through Millions into this..........only to watch it go bankrupt...

Solyndra misled government to get $535M solar project loan: report

Instead of fixing this...............In this case.........should the levies break it is estimated that 2 out of every 3 Californians wouldn't have water should they break.

Will California's Levees Hold up in an Earthquake?

It can take years for funding to get to where it is going:

The Obama administration has allocated $11 billion in stimulus funding toward the electric grid. Of that, $4.4 billion was dedicated directly to building a smart grid. But the money will take years working its way through the bureaucratic pipeline; so far, only $1.4 billion has been spent.--https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/recent-blackout-highlights-nations/?responsive=false

With Government Red Tape..............and with their buddies palms extended waiting for the normal bribes........oops ...........fees paid.............yup

 

[danielpalos]

Lets ignore these as well..............and build a dang park in California or a high speed rail in California........

Fuck the kids in this school who train to run should the dam break............Yeah......they actually do evacuation drills because the town would be under 14 foot of water should it finally break..............

State Of Disrepair: Dangerous Dams

California legalized pot and we expect around a billion in revenue.

 

[danielpalos]

431,000 residents at risk here.................should it fail......................Did our Gov't fix this shit with all that money......

Lewisville Dam: The dam called trouble

Why can Kentucky afford a War on Drugs?
