Obama pledging the largest new investment in roads and bridges since President Dwight D. Eisenhower built the Interstate system in the late 1950s! NAF
President-elect Barack Obama added sweep and meat to his economic agenda on Saturday, pledging the largest new investment in roads and bridges since President Dwight D. Eisenhower built the Interstate system in the late 1950s, and tying his key initiatives – education, energy, health care –back to jobs in a package that has the makings of a smaller and modern version of FDR's New Deal marriage of job creation with infrastructure upgrades.

The president-elect also said for the first time that he will “launch the most sweeping effort to modernize and upgrade school buildings that this country has ever seen.”

—ROADS AND BRIDGES: “[W]e will create millions of jobs by making the single largest new investment in our national infrastructure since the creation of the federal highway system in the 1950s. We’ll invest your precious tax dollars in new and smarter ways, and we’ll set a simple rule – use it or lose it. If a state doesn’t act quickly to invest in roads and bridges in their communities, they’ll lose the money.”

The Trans-Texas Corridor will be the first leg of what has been dubbed the NAFTA Super Highway to go through heartland America all the way to Canada

NAFTA Super Highway will be the jobs for Americans that Obama was talking about to get people working again. Just like Eisenhower during the depression.

Eisenhower Interstate System

More than a year later, on June 29, Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, guaranteeing full, dedicated funding for the project. The National Highway Defense System (NHDS), as it was initially known, has been referred to as one of the ‘Seven Wonders of the United States,’ among other such notable structures as the Golden Gate Bridge, the Hoover Dam and the Panama Canal.

Yeah, and Obama makes this announcement after he appoints Bill Richardson known as a NAFTA "cheerleader," as his commerce secretary.

Re: Obama pledging the largest new investment in roads and bridges since President Dwight D. Eisenhower built the Interstate system in the late 1950s! NAF
there are good ideas embedded in this plan.

But generally I give it a D-.

America needs to accept and make a public statement that our energy and transportation platforms are obsolete and need to be replaced with new platforms. It's that simple.

Cobbling together patches and repairs to an obsolete energy and transportation infrastructure is basically a "bridges to nowhere" plan.

>WE need a power grid and an a surface transportation grid designed for smaller, lighter, hybrid and all electric autos.

>we need an all new auto fleet

>we need a rail system capable of taking 50% of our freight off the surface roads

>we need a power grid and power production infrastructure that is designed for widely distributed power production not for centralized power production

>we need dual use of the power grid for broadband and power distribution

>we need to expand our power production at the residential and community level to produce at least half of our power at the point where it is consumed

>we need a smart grid capable of managing electrical storage distribution and production for the maximum potential of cleaner, safer, more local and even cheaper power production rather than expensive, centralized, toxic coal fired power production

Obama is about to waste what may be our last and best in a lifetime opportunity to revamp these infrastructures and platforms so he can subsidize the asphalt (made of oil), concrete, gravel, oil and internal combustion auto industries.

All of which are 20th century technologies, not technologies of the future.

IMO.

I.V.H.S. or Intelligent Vehicle Highway System using RFID and GPS technology now being placed on all roads, bridges. Check out any road or freeway construction, and you can see for yourself.


linking up smart cars, with this system, however even if your still driving around a pre 1990s car, riding a bike, taking the bus, or walking, you can still be tracked via the items you bought at ANY store.

I never believed Adolf Hitler was killed. I believe he was hidden away by the elite, maybe the Vatican had something to do with it too.

DNA could be taken from Hitler, and it is very possible to remake him either by cloning, or by artificial insemination.

Why doesn't he put money into food production? Then, we could have govt. sponsored food banks instead of giving out food stamps. That would actually save the Taxpayers money, create jobs and insure that children are receiving nutritious foods.

Let's all hope that they DO NOT fund this by turning all the roads into toll roads. If they did that, say goodbye to free movement in this country. They'll finally have total control over the roads and would be able to track anyone. Who knows what kind of technology they'll put in the booths...

But I think the Nafta superhighway not only will be used to transport goods among the United States, Canada, and Mexico, but to also be used for a large scale military invasion.

NAFTA Superhighway SPP has cost Many Americans jobs!
