You're not wrong about the government being terrible about spending money...

But doesn't change the fact that we can't afford/don't allocate enough money to infrastructure in this country, and increasing costs for the sake of aesthetics is a non starter.

And it's not a "little" bit that's needed lol. Think about the scale of the road systems in this country. A small cost increase per 1 mile of road X a lot of miles of road = a large cost
