More Than 70000 American Bridges Rated "Deficient"

That's the word on this AP story- and that was the same rating that the ill-fated I-35W bridge in Minneapolis had- deficient.

States and municipalites have had to make do with less and less Federal funding as more of the latter goes elsewhere (Iraq- etc.).

American infrastructure continues to age and fall apart with less money per capita spent year after year. Now citizens like you and I are dying.

Are you just a tad angry? Yet?
