Economy

Super Stupid

Digby:

Mort Zuckerman was on McLaughlin this week and said that the stimulus was a big fat failure because there was so much pork and they had given way too much money to the states. He mentioned in particular a high speed rail line between Las Vegas and Los Angeles, which he characterized as a boondoggle for Harry Reid. When asked what the money should have been spent on, he replied: "infrastructure."

Hahahahahaha! Huh?

By the way, all I see everywhere I go is road construction with giant "Recovery & Reinvestment Act" signs. Massive road resurfacing projects extending for miles and miles. Infrastructure.
