Dear Gail: Another brilliant comment. The only "trouble" I have with it is that I should have seen this when I wrote my essay. Then, I would have plagiarized your material (:)). Thanks once again. Best regards, Walter

Back in the early 90s, when I was a longhaul truckdriver, my uncle Ray was visiting my father in Denver at the same time as I had a couple of days off of the truck. Ray being the state representative for Altoona, Pennsylvania, he asked me which state had the worst highways. I told him that he should know the answer to that question if he'd ever driven the Pennsylvania turnpike. He admitted to knowing it. He couldn't explain why the free interstate highway in the northern part of Pennsylvania was in so much better condition than the turnpike in the southern part.

He didn't say and I doubt if he knew.

I'm sure the only reason why he asked was because I had driven many of the lower 48 interstate highways.

He is a RINO, so he probably supports public financing of highways, the primary case of the problem.

Anything touched by our vaunted overlords turns to the worst of extremes. Either a complete standstill or utter chaos. The expected outcome of corruption, incompetence and malice aforethought.

Isn’t it perplexing that properly synchronized traffic lights and well placed exit routes are very seldom instituted? It is proven extremely effective in mainstreaming the traffic flow and curtailing collisions. The only conclusion is misappropriation of funds ( graft) and misanthropy. The incompetence is pay for play. I.e PotholePete Buttegieg”Transportation Secretary”,Tony Blinken, Secretary Of StateJennifer Grantholm,Jake Sullivan,the whole cast of characters courtesy of the WEF YGLs,McKinsey,Carlisle,Tech,BlackRock,GoldmanSachs,Soros,Bloomberg-the selected set of global elite propagandists are “ incompetent”, but the MSM,Google,Amazon,Apple,Facebook,CIA,NSA,NIA,NIH,DOD,DOJ,FDA,EPA ,CDC,DHS,FBI,FISA,CISA,CCIUS,WHO,USAID,Fed,FCC,FTC,OSHA,Dept Of Education -the height of malevolent incompetence are able to set up a global surveillance system and perfectly synchronized mockingbird messaging?Because the incompetence is selective and malignant

Search “Truth In Media Alliance”. Sounds somewhat benevolent, right? No such thing. We’ve been sleepwalking for decades. Most have reached the point of no return.A Milgrimized,Stockholmed,Stepfordized,Pavlovian propagandized,braindead mob. Huxley was so prescient . Search Huxley/Mike Wallace 1958 Interview. You’ll wish for a handful of Soma.
