Thank you for the correction. Only thing is last year our illustrious congress got our wise President to sign a huge infrastructure spending bill. In it, is billions to tear down racist highways. Do a google search if you don’t believe it.
It would have been TOTALLY appropriate to instead invest in new Electric power plants to build out our infrastructure….but we didn’t….
But speaking of transportation, we will have to drive our cars more, because we forced pilots out of their jobs over a vaccine that was not proven safe….
But I’m just a bitter man, and I digress.
I’m all for new technology…..but slow down and do it right….
A school kid can see that we need more power plants….but they don’t run on fairy dust…..
