7. Hmmm Depression era infrastructure project...I wonder how many jobs that created...?
I think a good analog for modern times would be high speed rail....

oh wait the GOP doesn't like government spending...unless it is for tax cuts for the rich and fat defense pork dollars for home districts.

GOP would never build a bridge like the great bridges of the 20th century...they would rather give out corporate handouts...and gut revenue with giant Bush style tax cuts for the rich.
