Failing infrastructure

bridge

Congress goes on a ten day Memorial Day break at the end of the week.

Along with the week’s end comes the end of any infrastructure funding as the House and Senate failed to pass the appropriate funding bill.

So as summer begins, just be careful of the bridges and highways that you might use as you take those summer vacations.

In Thornton Wilder’s book, The Bridge of San LuisRey, The underlying question was if those who died with the bridge’s collapse were united in some mysterious cosmological way, or was the group the result of mere coincidence.

If it were to happen now, there would be no mystery.

The unifying element would be Congress.
