Presently I am enjoying the many roadway improvements and off road pathways.Germany, Switzerland and France all have plenty. All one need to do is look around at the girth on most of the citizenry an it is obvious what a good diet and daily exercise provides.

Pay now, for transportation alternatives or Pay later with higher health care costs !

The trick is to pick and choose among public works projects so we fund those that have real bang for the buck, and not fund those projects that add fluff but no substance. But as I said earlier, one man’s meat is another man’s poison.
