Now, now … I’m sure that those who are providing the private capital will do so out of the goodness of their hearts.

Public funds, meet private bank accounts – off-shore, naturally.

the only way private money investments get there money back is putting tolls on every bridge and highway, Ike did it by raising the gas tax. I would be surprise if Dems would support a bill like that. but then again they are Dems because the cry from Trump voters is give the guy a chance just like the repubs gave Obama a chance.

Probably would been easier to just put obama’s jobs bill up for a vote say like 6 years ago or so. The one in mcturtles desk drawer covered in dust. We would have been much farther down the new road i might say.

Mexico will pay its part !

Being able to purchase health insurance across state lines…the concept may “sound good” but the reality is that finding doctors in your area who accept health insurance from another state (esp one across the country) is highly unlikely.
Already, finding doctors that accept many of the healthcare plans in the exchanges is not easy.
The people who are proposing this have great gov’t health insurance plans so likely have not faced discovering that their doctors do not take their insurance.

I haven’t heard much of a discussion about this issue.
Does anyone have any more information on how this actually could work in a functional way?

What Republican fat cat legislators are hearing his who is NOT paying for it! They don’t mind approving a few public private partnerships, just do them a big favor and don’t ask for any money!!

OT President Obama book deal

The KING OF DEBT SINGS AGAIN !!!
“DEFICITS DON’T MATTER”
