[quote user="Phoebe Vet"] Sam: My comment was intended to comment on infrastructure. Though I could argue about many of the things you named, that would be a tangent. Every infrastructure project we undertake gets tied up in studies, paper shuffling, NIMBY lawsuits, etc. which results in decades of delays and ever rising costs resulting from those delays.  Rail, Roads, Airports, Industrial parks, all take decades to build. <img onload="resizeImage(this);" alt="http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg164/phoebevet/Lynx/projectprocess.gif" src="http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg164/phoebevet/Lynx/projectprocess.gif" /> <div style="clear:both;"></div> [/quote] TX 130 and TX 145, both toll roads, were built in several years, although the planning required approximately 18 months.  My retort was and is to refute the notion that we cannot build anything in this country or the people responsible for doing so are ground to a halt because of regulations. On another note, several merchant power plants have been built in Texas and gone on line.  The total time from design to synch was approximately 18 to 21 months.  Power plants, in case anyone is wondering, are pretty big tinker toys.
