Interesting. 1.2 Trillion infrastructure bill passed, but only $550 billion goes to Infrastructure. So what does the other $650 billion go for? just asking for a friend.....

To those that wonder how big a trillion dollars is, lets convert dollars into seconds.

A Million seconds ago was 2 weeks ago.

A Billion seconds ago was 32 Years ago and President George H W Bush defeated Mike Dukakis to become President.

A Trillion seconds ago was 32,000 YEARS ago and Cro-Magnon man walked the earth. Humans, (as we know then today) did not exist.

Hopefully that puts into perspective what a Trillion really is.

Let that sink in.

You’re very sneaky - you read the link and know where the moneys going
Badly needed improvements and you piss on it.

The components of the bill that address legitimate infrastructure account for only about one fourth of the total amount being appropriated and around half of the new spending. But it's an "infrastructure bill." Special interests cash in as the taxpayer gets screwed.

Yep, I re-read the link YOU provided, and it says, in almost the first sentence, Quote: "It will deliver $550 billion of new federal investments in America's infrastructure over five years, touching everything from bridges and roads to the nation's broadband, water and energy systems". Unquote.

So my question remains, exactly where is the remaining $650 Billion dollars going? When I sat down with my calculator and added up each of the items mentioned in the article I came up with less than the $550 Billion claimed for Infrastructure improvements.

So rather than crawling back to you might I suggest that you actually read what you posted, and start asking the same questions that I and others are asking. WHERE is the remaining $650 Billion dollars going?

He probably never looked into it any farther than the liberalnewsmediaestablishment told him. That's where all his FACTS come from.

Here’s your answer - lots of very good things make up the cost of this infrastructure bill:
From rail, roads, bridges to cleaner water and cleaning up toxic sites and more .
Read and learn

I'll go on record right here as saying that as long as the money is being spent on actual infrastructure projects I'm all for it. While I don't like spending the money, I do recognize that some bridges and roadways do need repair, as well as new roads in certain areas. I am NOT for tearing up certain highways simply because some groups of people think they are racist. Nor am I for a number of other things in the bill like "climate change" BS. So again I'll ask, where is a large part of the money actually being spent?
