Ultimately, the money for these projects comes from the government. Major works projects which have revolutionized how we live never begin as private enterprise; those are relegated to products and services with incremental contributions to our advancements. The USA needs State-based Socialism and not this consumeristic crony capitalism that is killing our humanity in every respect. Global socialism is just other countries stealing from each other and calling it equity. Strong nations are the basis for production and when incentives don't exist to engage people in those nations because of international influence, money, and elitism the outcome is stagnation and degradation of the system. Real estate speculation has gone absolutely wild over the last sixty years as the Federal Government, the Federal Reserve, and its agents, sit on hundred of millions of acres of livable land, and hundreds of thousands of homes, as a means of maintaining investor value. Which is a complete affront to social government and the purpose of this nation - the ability to choose how we live. None of us choose this save for the inheritors of massive capital who are generally "citizens of the world" because they are liquid enough to owe no loyalties. This has to end.
