I think the US government is getting sidetracked. With the stimulus money, the government plans to build roads, construct high speed rail lines.. etc etc.
This is a losing proposition. I am not sure these are the jobs and this is where money should be spent. This was good in previous depressions. Times have changed.
The *thinking leaders* in power need to come to terms with what is needed after another 30 years. I believe infrastructure investment should be done - but the infrastructure in question has changed. The infrastructure in question now can be related to
* security infrastructure
* broadband access
* basic sciences
* health infrastructure
* medical technologies
etc.
Why construct more roads? Make WFH a reality for more folks!
