Meanwhile, we're starting to look like a third world country with our bridges falling down. Why do Americans appear to wait until catastrophe hits before doing anything?

Because our educational system sucks enough to let people think we can get by on little more than Jesus, American Exceptionalism, and the right to bear arms.

Hard work is for suckers. And Europeans and Asians. We're all gonna go to law school and get rich!
