Sixty Minutes:
We will never be able to keep up all the failing infrastructure we have. Yet, we keep building new suburbs with new (generally crappy and car-based) infrastructure. I don't understand.
PS. The video doesn't appear to be working on my computer. Not sure what the problem is, since the imbed is is 480x270 (which would appear to be bigger than what the error says is the minimum).
I think it would be interesting to study the infrastructure of past empires, such as the Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman & British, and compare them to American infrastructure, vis a vis when in the empire's history did their infrastructure get to certain points? And when did they reach the tipping point? It would be depressing, but informative.
ReplyDeleteThat would be pretty interesting. Way beyond what I could do, but maybe somebody with talent will do it.
