Ok, but is this the first time? For as long as I've been alive there has been pot holes and there has been discontent in the middle east. So if anyone was wondering, yes, I know america has a failing infrastructure and is waging war across the world. In fact, I believe this is common knowledge.

Thus, the common knowledge part.

People are always mad about pot holes and military spending where have you been?

This is my point! At least I know one person gets it.

Perhaps the frustration is exacerbated by the lack of progress relative to the amount of money spent and time since these issues have manifested. It's also particularly visible in our increasingly globalized and interconnected world.
