Transportation Secretary: ‘I’m Very Proud’ of DOT Stimulus Spending at $738,000 Per Job

Roads and bridges will not solve our economic problems. If it was 80-90 years ago LaHood may have an argument but there aren’t people looking for construction jobs building/ repairing roads and bridges. People with vast backgrounds who are out of work all of which are unrelated to construction. Furthermore those looking for work may physically be unable to do construction work. Why is it this regime along with others thinks construction is the cure for high unemployment and a bad economy? I’m quite tired of hearing this mantra from the imperial regime.
