In Heaven, pursuing dangerously liberal ideas, like the interstate

The difference was when Eisenhower proposed the Interstate Highway
system he put into place a user fee (gasoline tax) to pay for it.
Since then some democrats have seen fit to raid that tax base to
build
railroads to nowhere and subsidize public transportation systems that
paid their own way, even making a modest profit in his time.
Those are also the places with crumbling roads and falling down
bridges. Imagine that.
It's always easier to raise money for sexy projects like new freeways
or bridges than to raise money for boring stuff like maintenance.

taxes need a good salesman
Like Jeffrey Epstein
weird as it seems, and as disgusting as he was, people kept giving him
money for his ponzi schemes
taxes need to be sold by a hustler, but without the pedophilia

€śAccording to testimony in Parliament by British MP George Galloway,
Leese was a middleman who handled some of the secret commissions for a
dubious multibillion-pound deal with the Saudi royal family.
€ś[Epsteins] a genius,€ť Hoffenberg said Leese told him. €śHes great at
selling securities. And he has no moral compass.€ť33
To Hoffenberg, who went prison for a $450 million Ponzi scheme, that last
attribute was an especially desirable trait. Epstein had everything
Hoffenberg could want.
Released in 2013 after spending eighteen years in federal prison,
Hoffenberg told the Washington Post that the entire scam was actually
engineered by Epstein, who escaped unscathed and uncharged. €śJeffrey was
the best hustler on two feet,€ť he said. €śTalent, charisma, genius,
criminal mastermind.€ť
€śHes got a gift thats extraordinary, where he controls the people he
meets and manipulates them totally with his charisma,€ť Hoffenberg says on
the four-part Netflix documentary Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich. €śYou cant
grasp the magnitude of this mans controlling effect.€ť
Hoffenbergs allegations have not been fully corroborated, but he made
similar charges in a 2018 lawsuit, in which he alleged that he and
Epstein operated €śa classic Ponzi scheme from the late 1980s to
mid-1990s[€¦]€ť
Excerpt From
American Kompromat
Craig Unge
Biden is not a great salesman, his talents lie elsewhere
Not convinced that he has any real talents except
for hanging in there when the **** hits the fan.
Buttigieg is also not a great salesman
Yeah, the only way to get something like that thru is by stealth.
Trump can be a great salesman when he wants
Yep, he clearly got roughly half of those who bother
to vote to believe that the sun shine out of his arse.
But has also managed to get most of the other
half to decide that he is a useless clown.
He has fleeced so many people over the decades
and continues to do even now, extracting money
from suckers with his latest reincarnation of maga pac
Essentially because those actually are that stupid.
He squandered four years, making infrastructure week a sales
pitch fir any week where he needed diversionary tactics
He could have got a good infrastructure program
and got wealthy concerns to pay for it
Not convinced about that.
He was jyst lazy
And completely incompetent, and stupid.
Good infrastructure, whether urban trains or rural
highways are good for everyone, including wall street
But very expensive, so hard to get done.
Good public transport gets workers to work
with products that benefit everyone in the nation,
from software programs , to factories that make
clothes and process food, to accessible schools that
then send informed students all over the country
But no prez has any real effect on any of that.
A few do manage to tweak some useful change
like Ike's national highway scheme etc, but the
rest of it isnt due to any prez, it all happens due
to much more fundamental drivers.
Anyway looks like secretary pete is not selling the tax right now
Likely because of the reaction he got.
