That's good, right? You spend American taxpayers' money on hiring American companies to improve American infrastructure. It's a bit pathetic that this is even considered notable, it's Government 101 and a government that neglects to do this is failing in its most basic of responsibilities.
I think the real answer is depends on how much money should it cost to repair 9 critical bridges.
Is 300 million a good deal?
I have no freaking idea, but that seems incredibly high to me
Especially when
According to a report from the American Road and Transportation Builders Association, nearly 80,000 bridges need replacing and roughly 45,000 are rated in poor condition with repairs long overdue.
At 33 million a bridge that should only cost 2,640,000,000,000
Whatever the freak that number is
Obviously both are without context, and not every bridge will be thst expensive
