Bridges

Bridges seem to be the affair of the day so let's talk about bridges. It seems, not surprisingly, that as soon as the Minneapolis I-35 incident hit the media, government officials across the country jumped to inspect bridges in their areas and comb records of recent inspections. More than 70,000 bridges across the US have been found to be structurally deficient!
Do you know that our taxes are supposed to pay for bridge maintenance?

Do you know where that money has gone, instead?

That's right...
