It's not just liberal cities that seem to be decaying it's also general infrastructure decay that seems pretty nation wide. The roads and bridges in a lot of areas are really in poor shape along with water, water quality, and septic utility issues. It's turning into a place where if you want clean drinking water you gotta pay and if you live outside city limits you need ground clearance and a front end that can take the abuse the roads dish out.

Must be nice to work a low wage job and still be middle class.

I think the DOT's are grifting on the road and bridge money. Starting with five guys standing around watching one guy work a shovel and they all make $$$ all the way up to the management. I'm in the south also, and since there is no real frost line the roads are made cheaply to begin with. They built a brand new bridge at the bottom of the hill for a creek that maybe floods the roadway once a year but the road is completely trashed and nothing but a once a year patch job happens. There's no sense to any of the decision making. They are widening i-35 a couple lanes each way, which will have a net effect of jack squat when it's complete because rush hour will still be a traffic jam.

they paved my street 2 years ago along with most of the town. I cant imagine how many 10s of millions they spent

Thursday morning they had the ground hogs out with huge Cats ripping it up for sewers lines.

They paved my street about five years ago. I have to pay for my portion in yearly installments of $350 for 7 years. The morons on the once private dirt road wanted it paved and made public (really dumb) because they were too stupid to figure out you need a 4x4 to live on a long dirt road in Texas when it rains so they were complaining when it washed out. To topi t off, you can still get flooded into the neighborhood in spite of the road and the new bridge further down the hill. The new road already has washouts and cracking.

Your situation sounds even more brain damaged. Glad I'm not on public sewer but unfortunately I have stupid aqua texas for water. I can't tell you how many times the above morons working on the road busted the line, never mind all the other times I've had no water or boil water notices. Usually right before I had to get ready for a gig.

State DoT just replaced an overpass over the intracoastal waterway nearyby; it was a low span with a draw bridge, one lane each way. The replacement is a higher span and no drawbridge. Of course, one lane each way. :doh:

The connection of the bridge to the road on one side has a huge dip, they had to put "Bump" signs up, if you hit the dip at the posted speed limit with a low clearance car you are going to bottom out or be airborne depending on which direction you're going.
