Think repairing the state’s roads and highways is costly? Try not repairing them. That's the message from transportation advocacy groups, which say poor road conditions are costing Texas drivers $22.6 billion per year in car damage, fuel costs and traffic accidents. But as Mose Buchele of KUT News reports, before any of those problems can be addressed, we should all prepare for a bumpy ride.
But, it's not like bad roads cost us anything or that there are no viable infrastructure projects....

You can pay now,
or you can pay even more later.
Today, the AFL-CIO and Chamber of Commerce released a joint statement about how they liked Obama's emphasis on improving infrastructure in the SOTU. I know it will be difficult, but if these two groups can agree on infrastructure spending maybe they can work together with the WH to get some sort of bill through Congress.
But...But...But...the Texas
Republican Party worships at the no tax altar....
