- Brave-Steak 7y agoImo, the most interesting part is at the bottom under "What's going on" > The physical infrastructure projects enumerated above occurred before 1970 to a disproportionate degree. Why? Some works containing hypotheses: Is there a Western country where this isn't a problem? Germany has a bunch of engineering projects that are either completely held up/cancelled by red tape or are just mismanaged so badly that the cost overruns and delays can be staggering.

- phreeza 7y agoOr a subreddit
