Everyone is a capitalist, and everyone is a socialist. It's a sliding scale, not a binary choice. This is, without question, an overall failure to address infrastructure issues. Still remember the 35W bridge collapse in Minnesota. This won't be the last.

Physical, tangible, works and construction that are indigenous to a society. That is, roads, utilities, buildings, and the like.

Condominiums are contraception, I believe. What is Trustex getting for condo fees these days?


I think highways and bridges and shit like that are infrastructure.

I'd just as soon call them highways and bridges and shit like that, however.

I can see why right wingers don't know what infrastructure is. They don't understand the concept of common property.

Condos and homes are a form of infrastructure just as apartment buildings are. Infrastructure doesn't have to be publicly owned. It can be, but that is not a necessity. Typically today for example, when a developer builds a subdivision they put in all the utilities, roads, and such along with the homes. When the development is complete, the developer gives the public portions of the utilities, roads, and such to the government in return for a large tax break or other concessions that equal the cost of this part of the development.
Sometimes these things remain in private hands too. Some HOA's operate that way with, say, a gated community where all the roads, utilities, parks, and common areas held privately and paid for in upkeep by the HOA dues.

Hard to make fun of stupid people like you.

Privately owned condos are still infrastructure. It is just privately owned infrastructure.

That's a privately owned bridge. It is infrastructure. Condos are infrastructure.

That's a privately owned bridge. It is infrastructure. Condos are infrastructure.

You sure are dumb. The owner pays for the maintenance of that bridge.

So? It's still infrastructure. Infrastructure is the physical bridge. Who owns it and pays for the maintenance is irrelevant to that point.
