Eisenhower came back from Germany after WWII and was very impressed with the Autobahn.When he became president he devoted alot of time and effort to build our interstate highway system.
Ever notice that no other country has a interstate highway system like we do.
Ever wonder why?
No nation has ever built a highway system like we have, because they never had the resources to build one.
You have to go back to Ancient Rome to find a nation devoting those kind of resources to a road system.
The resources Eisenhower used to build the interstate highway system came from taxes paid by middle class, middle income manufacturing jobs in there thousands.
Manufacturing, make a product there is a demand for, and sell it at a profit.
Capitalism.Grow it,Mine it or make it...
The USA once a powerhouse of manufacturing, is now a shell of what it once was.
Outsourcing and free trade are how you take a nation that was capable of building a interstate highway system 50 years ago.
To a nation that wants a 15 dollar minimum wage and thinks they can live on it.
