The U.S. population has more than doubled since the 1960s, when most of the country’s major infrastructure systems were designed. Many are reaching the end of their lifespan, and are dangerously overstretched, experts say.
What do you think the tax rate was on the upper crust when all these aging roads, bridges, railways and utilities were built? Just where do you think than next major slug of money should come from, just what segment of the American tax paying public do you think probably can easily survive a tax bump to finance long overdue infrastructure repairs?
