America won’t build infrastructure projects like China does because the Republicans doesn’t want to collect taxes by enforcing existing tax laws:


U.S. infrastructure deal teeters after Republicans reject IRS funding

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The White House and U.S. congressional negotiators are scrambling to salvage a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal after Republicans balked at funding to enforce existing tax laws - a key way to pay for the plan - leaving both sides searching for a way forward.



Last month, Biden and a bipartisan group of senators agreed on a $1.2 trillion infrastructure package with roughly $600 billion in new spending financed in part by increased enforcement of tax laws.

Republicans, under pressure from anti-tax groups who claimed it would empower auditors to harass business owners and political opposition, rejected that plan over the weekend.

On Monday Biden took a dig at Republicans who have backed away from the deal, saying “we shook hands on it.”

It looks like there won’t be any high speed trains, no walls, no bridges and no roads in America.

The issue I think is what accounts as infrastructure.

Republicans are so easy to understand. Constantly distract their idiot voters with cultural issues while making sure the crony capitalist billionaires that are the real power get protected.

Was two mistakes. Almost didn't catch the 2nd. Fixed now though.
