Hey IDIOT LIBS.
You given up on the idea on talking abouit the interstate?
You learned the interstate came approximately 50 YEARS AFTER the car?
I knew this, and it happened before I was born.
What is your idiot excuse!
Actually, the primary incentive for the interstate highway system was national defense. Ike came back from Germany after WWII and saw how effective the autobahn was in moving men and materials
In 1950s America, it was not a question of if there would be a nuclear attack, but when. We needed a way to rapidly move evacuees, troops and supplies to affected areas. The interstate highway system was the key
Or move busloads of OWS demonstrators, illegals, or resthome residents quickly from one polling place to another.
