Not in the last five years, but gradually over the last 40 or so. The reason is essentially that we’ve been building road networks that cost more to maintain than they generate in tax revenue, and thus our infrastructure balance sheet is running more and more negative. We’re very poor compared to the balance sheets governments in the US operated on as recently as the 1950s.
