It was called…..infrastructure.

It’s still not finished.

How many of you remember when the Flintstones went to the Grand Canyon?

But it only took three presidential administrations to put a man on the moon.

If it was a government job, the money would have disappeared and it never would have been finished.

Protect the Grand Canyon from big oil.

What, over priced and in the wrong place?

Government Job: A little side job you do at work for yourself or a friend. Nothing to do with your work, just all the tools you need to do it.

The government can move quickly when we want or need it to—the TVA/rural electrification, response to WWII, the Manhattan Project, Apollo, COVID vaccines. The idea that government doesn’t get anything done is a meme promoted during the Reagan administration that hobbles us to this day.

How many of you remember when bugs bunny filled up the Grand Canyon? I love rebel rabbit!

I don’t care who’s making it. I just appreciate the work of the artist. One of the best of our national parks.

That Government is defined by the Laws of Nature and work at their own schedule.

I thought Pecos Bill or Paul Bunyan…one those guys, dug the Grand Canyon.

The current President’s memory is somewhere at the bottom.

Nah, that’s just the gully created by the uncontrolled effluent from a different government contract. Probably the one to pave the main street in Flagstaff.

Yet, the Hoover dam was a government project, done under budget and on time.
