Questions hang over Trump plan on infrastructure


Doubts are growing that President-elect Donald Trump will be able to push through a massive infrastructure package in his first 100 days, as he had once promised.

He faces likely pushback from conservatives, and he will also have to weigh many other competing priorities.

When radio host Hugh Hewitt asked incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus about a stimulus package that could be used to rebuild the nation's roads and bridges, Priebus said that the administration would likely focus on tax reform and ObamaCare in the first nine months of the year.

In a November interview with The New York Times, Trump said that infrastructure won't be the "core" of his first few years, but that he is interested in a large infrastructure bill.

Tax reform, Obamacare and appropriations "are going to push infrastructure right out of the way," predicted Chris Edwards, an economist at the Cato Institute.

That's a copout, everyone is expected to give their take on an article when they start a new thread.
So what do you think?

No more debt of any kind until things have relaxed and stabled out a little.
I would much prefer that the debt get paid off and any further debt would be due to disaster or war, not for daily business.

Is this a written rule or just for me special??

It's common courtesy expected from everyone. Some things are a given, while others sometimes require an explanation from the poster as to why it's topical and or, political, or why we should even give a damn.
But sometimes it's so far out of left field that no one knows why it was posted, and the thread dies a quick death, simply because the poster didn't care enough to start a conversation.
