Failing US infrastructure has been singled out as a major pressing issue by US Engineers (professional societies, etc) for at least 15 years that I'm aware of.

It's been cited before 2016 as a trillion dollar problem.

The point is that this something that one POTUS chose to talk about and frequently hyped "Infrastructure Week" and also something that another POTUS chose to do something about.

^F informs us there are 33 instances of "war" on that page, most in "award", "forward", etc. Two as the actual word "war".

So Biden didnt start this war then is that what you are saying?

award and forward have nothing do with war, are you getting confused?

> Two as the actual word "war".

Can you link them, or maybe read your link again.


> So Biden didnt start this war then is that what you are saying?

Absolutely not. Action was started by Biden on a problem that existed for years.

> are you getting confused?

Not at all .. why do you need to ask, are you confused?

> Can you link them, or maybe read your link again.

Are you unable to find them? I'm sorry, I'm not your "Remote Browser As A Service".


> Action was started by Biden on a problem that existed for years.

Isnt that a good thing then?

> Are you unable to find them?

You were the one who could not find it not me and then you got confused with award and forward


Of course it's a good thing, why on earth would you imagine it not to be?

> You were the one who could not find it not me and then you got confused with award and forward

Please don't be silly. I found all instances of the character sequence "war". Most instances were within full words, two instances were the actual word war.

Then you asked me to help you to search within the text. Most people on HN are capable of finding such things themselves. Why you struggle with this is a mystery.

You very much look to be the one confused.


> Of course it's a good thing, why on earth would you imagine it not to be?

Glad you agree with me, not sure why you wasted so much time.

> I found all instances of the character sequence "war".

You did not though. Check again.
