China expands , and we decline.

Kind of a shame really.

I'll bet that is some of our stimulus money interest payments that funded that behemoth of a bridge.

Makes me want to go to Walmart and buy more Chinese Stuff.

Or the Harley Shop and buy the high priced Chinese Stuff.

I remember as a young child going to cross the Causeway in New Orleans on its grand opening.  I, being a fidgedie kid with full blown ADD, was tired of the bridge the first mile into it.  That wasn't the bad news, when we finally reached the other side, we turned around and drove it back the other way.

Imagine how much our infrastructure would improve if the feds tossed $2.5 billion at it!

When I was a kid, I thought it was the coolest thing in the world that when you were in the middle of the Lake Ponchartrain bridge, you couldn't see land all the way around you.
