Another American Money Pit: Infrastructure

"A great opportunity to privatize the infrastructure. Or we can pay bloated government wages for shoddy workmanship for which no one is responsible and complain about how we need to spend another trillion to fix it. Let the private sector take over and they will spend as much as necessary, as efficiently as possible, and not a penny more."

Uh... huh. Yes, let's get the "private sector" to take over. After all, they've done one heckuva job rebuilding Iraq. Cuz they're so "efficient" and "ethical" n stuff. Operation Infrastructure Rebuild c/o Halliburton, Enron, Bear-Sterns & Indymac. All with a nice taxpayer "privatize profits, socialize losses" backstop, of course. Yup... that's the ticket.
