For the last couple of months I get up and drive to work past the new construction site for Zackbys on Furys Ferry road. There are regularly 20-30 trucks parked out front and the building changes dramatically every day. They have at least 3 different types of crews all working at the same time. Then I turn the corner onto furys ferry rd. and face a 2 mile stretch of unfinished road construction that looks just like it has for the last 2 months. Not a frickin sole is ever working on the road.
The other day I was shocked to see a we ARE open sign in front of the restaurant right behind the 30 feet of mangled dirt and debris of the road construction.
I wonder which construction project is funded with private money and which one is funded with taxes that could be better described as OPM (other peoples money) or government extortion funds.
I think I remember another organization (the mafia) that forced its tenants to pay money in exchange for protection from a so-called evil force. Of course this evil force was created, funded, and frequently pissed off by the protecting organization.
Why would we even think about letting the government feed our poor, care for our sick, or manage our retirement?
