A few days.

The result was that it helped us defeat Germany.

By a few days … at best. They were done for before our forces every reached the Audubon, let alone used it to move troops or supplies.

Note, not one Island taken from Japan had a decent surface transportation system … not one.

It was built on a lie, that is was federal because of defense, when the fact is, the enemy can use the same interstates if we were ever invaded.

Hey Z, if you had to guess, what do you think is the most common form of freight transport in the USA? Truck, rail, pipeline, vessel, or air?

A follow up if you don’t mind: if the answer is “truck”, do you suppose that a solid and extensive interstate highway system might be a major boon to a burgeoning superpower that is on it’s way to the largest economy in history?

A couple more, with your indulgence: why say these roads (named Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense) weren’t built with national defense partly in mind? Were you aware that Eisenhower was on a survey of American roads for the army in the early 1900’s for just such a project, and he found them to be deplorable?

My comment had nothing to do with the desirability of an interstate highway system. I quite enjoy it. Had more to do with the fiction that was maintained to have it become a federal mandate. Could easily have been done with some state to state negotiation absent the fed.

Pretty much like most other people in Norway, without ostentatious displays of wealth.

And no one is taxed half to death.

Yes, taxes are insanely high there, but, I’m sure not to you…Pfffffffffffffffffffffffft!

To those who would pay little to no taxes of course they wouldn’t be insanely high.

A good many of the left want a socialist welfare state system like Norway in the hopes of transferring more money from the pockets of others to their own.

The U.S government spend 6 trillion a year.
how much of that money is going into your pocket.

None, I’m one of the payers.

Yeah me too!

Thanks for admitting I’m right.

If you read the report and consider the metrics by which happiness was measured you may find that there are things we could do here to improve people’s lives. No need to move anywhere.

It is neither your nor the government’s function to “improve my life”.

Enjoy, taking a snippet out of context seems to be fun for you.

Nobody is looking to improve your life. I would however want to improve our country.

NJBob · 2022-01-18T01:05:56.822Z

Your life… I’m sure most people think things could be better here. I sense you think your life is perfect already.

A one line reply to a longer conversation.

I made an observation to a line in a post about losing wars due to poor infrastructure. A subtle point, apparently too difficult for some to understand.
