Why would anyone trust Government to invest? After all it's "someone else's" money. Best to privatize it all. At least then the owner of the asset will want it to last and be as attractive as possible to maximize the revenue out of the asset. Get Government out of EVERYTHING- they only make it worse.

I forget exactly where it was or all the finer details but there was a small set of steps built once some years back someplace, near a beach, I think, because people had been complaining for years that they were needed. So finally, a group of people got together and built them themselves at a cost of only a couple hundred bucks. Well, the city wasn't having any of this. The same city of course, that had been dragging its feet for years and never got anything built immediately sprang into action to demand that these steps be taken out at once. I guess there must have been some level of shame because the city did eventually get around to building their own..... at a cost or over $10G!!

The US as a whole has a desperate problem with aging dams, bridges, roads, reservoirs, and urban structures. But focusing on NYC gives a distorted picture. NYC is one of the most expensive cities in the world, and Manhattan is more expensive than any other part of it. The Second Ave. subway had to be built by tunneling through bedrock. But it was a new structure, needed and useful. The infrastructure problems of the country overall are different--aging, dangerous, outdated bridges, tunnels, dams, etc., need to be repaired or replaced. Why that is so difficult is what this video should have examined. Maybe another one is needed.
@NickSteffen33 минут бұрын
Somewhat, but a significant portion of funding comes from shared state and federal pools of money. So an expensive toilet in one city means less to spend on projects in other places. Additionally these pools of money have requirements associated with access to them, these requirements are designed around more complex projects. Finally, if your writing a budget and your infrastructure budget at the state or federal level is an unfillable black hole, you might decide to spend less which affects the areas outside major cities too. So NYCs and other cities infrastructure issues can indeed affect everyone.

The cost of building in the U.S. varies by state. But if Federal funding is involved there are so many strings attached that many companies won't offer bids. The "Infrasture Act" was signed into law in 2021 and it included 7.5 billion dollars to build a car charging network. It's now 2024 and only 7 have been built.

The same thing is happening in Canada. In my city, there was a plan to build a new arena and event center on an open field at the city's edge. They had to do a $2 million environmental study for it. After the city council approved the project, some groups opposed to the location took the city to court. The legal battle lasted over 10 years. During that time, the environmental study expired, so they had to do five more studies, each costing $2 million. So, $10 million was spent, but nothing has been built yet.

The problem isn't unions in general, which exist in Spain and Germany and the Netherlands too, but that in the US they are as greedy and probably more corrupt than the corporations they often criticize and because infrastructure can't be shipped overseas like all the other industries unions have ruined, they use it as a slush fund.
