<p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">John,</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">I was only commenting on Henry’s point that we are not spending money. It seems like this country has spent far more money on infrastructure in the last five years than at any other time in its history. For about half of what was allotted for stimulus in one signing, we could have bought the entire HSR system rollout for the U.S.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">I skimmed over the report, but I have to ask if a report showing that we don’t spend enough on infrastructure is objective. I would never expect to see such a report that gives an “A” as a grade. Maybe they exist. Can somebody cite an example of an infrastructure report card that does not call for more spending on infrastructure? Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but one political party always claims that infrastructure spending is woefully inadequate. </span></p>
