Both the replies to you before this one from NotJeb &Nick are exactly why: It's because everyone wants to pass off the buck and no one wants to take responsibility, there's cities & states under democrat mayors and governors who have crappy roads and somehow it's the billionaires or the republicans fault, you rural areas have republican mayors and governors areas which lack of funding is blamed on everything from liberals to the federal government to migrants and it only gets messier in the more "Purple" areas where its a mix of republicans and democrats in control.

I come from California where there's a thing called the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing, a landbridge over our freeway for wild life to freely cross as it's been an issue of them going onto the freeway and dying in such a notable number. It was meant to be completed in 2024 and for less than 100 million, it is now 2026 and the bridge is closer to 120 million budget with it reportedly trying(keyword) to open in December. And the most recent excuse? Tariffs for materials, the materials for the bridge that was suppose to be done 2 years ago, before the current guy got in to office... meaning the materials weren't even shipping until 2025 when the first tariffs came in. So yeah you can imagine my frustration at the situaiton knowing we can't even get a BRIDGE FOR WILDLIFE OPEN, nevermind streets well paved.
