Falling bridges

At least 25% of bridges in the US need to be upgraded, at a cost of $140 billion.  This is about the same amount of a budget surplus we had under Clinton.  Meanwhile, that surplus has turned into a near $500 billion deficit for next year.  McCain would further increase that deficit through his spending on the Iraq War and the Republicans inability to be fiscal conservatives (that is now the job of the democrats).  If you are worried about your taxes going up, it is George Bush's Third Term (McCain) that you should fear.
