      In both Obama and Biden administrations they passed bills designating a colossal amount of money to “repair infrastructure.” NOT ONE PENNY OF IT WAS SPENT ON INFRASTRUCTURE. Who stole it? Remember Solyndra? Labor unions were GIFTED millions of it. No roads or bridges were repaired. University profs who donated to Democrats got big grants to do pointless stuff.

      A trillion is a drop in the bucket to catch up to the decades of lack of improvements on our infrastructure. Pay more attention to your local politicians and whether they support budgeting for your states infrastructure or not. You can't build a dam or a highway or anything else, for that matter, and expect it to last forever with no maintenance or improvements. If you don't like the federal government telling states what to do, then take matters into your own hands and get your state to allocate funds for this very thing. Destructive weather will only get worse in the future.

      Wind & solar will NEVER power this world. People need to wake up to reality & facts, that stuff costs too much, doesn't work well & it creates more pollution than anything else! Educate yourself about the real source of them, all the way back to it's creation, how they're made, what materials are used, where they come from, who does the work, what they're paid, how long they last, what they do to the environment around them. Where they're disposed of when they're no good anymore. Like the wind farms killing whales & ruining land. Ever seen one of the dumps filled with EV's or the wind/ solar farm trash? What a field of solar panels does to farm land, & all the chemicals draining into groundwater? The cost? One hailstorms damage?
      You have a rude awakening coming if you learn all that. Research it honestly, for yourself. Don't ignore & keep pushing wind & solar. People have good intentions but ignorance is costly.
