I object, given the way the government is run in the state that I live in (California) I'm inclined to believe we need more government spending on realistic projects, like repairing existing roads (not building new roads to nowhere), getting the HSR line between SF and LA built right, (to take pressure off of in-state air routes) and investing in local rail transit projects (as a catalyst for developing both cities and suburbs, and also to take pressure off of roads and freeways).
