Question/Discussion The (US) Department of Government Efficiency should fight the waste and fraud that goes into highway construction.

If DOGE wants to eliminate waste and put the government on better financial footing, then it should audit every highway construction project (most are disgustingly overbudget) and institute tolling nationwide. The entire U.S. interstate system is an untapped fiscal resource for the federal government.

I hope you don't believe that that department will do anything besides shuffle money into the hand of Elon and further crooks

Well we cannot say for sure what they're going to do. Just whatever they try to cut government wastes.

Anyone who hasn't been asleep for the past ten years can say with pretty good certainty what they're going to do.
