GOP favors individual vouchers for Bridge Rebuilding

Post by LaWood »

Reaffirming their strong conservative, Reaganite credentials, the entire field of Republican Presidential candidates today rejected calls for increased federal spending to repair the nation’s roads and bridges, and instead proposed a market-based “individual voucher program.”

Claiming that public spending on infrastructure smacks of Soviet-style socialism, the GOP candidates explained that the wealthiest citizens in a capitalist society should be able to build and control their own tunnels, roads and bridges.

Rudy Giuliani, for example, emphasized that his tenure as Mayor of New York City would have been a lot more enjoyable had he been able to keep working class blacks and Latinos off the bridges and out of Manhattan.

Giuliani added that wife Judith (not “Judi” as in “Rudy”) also wanted her own highway just for her Louis Vuitton handbag.

Mitt Romney also spoke in favor of the “voucher system,” explaining that while Mormons have no problem sharing spouses, they believe in having their own HOV lanes as part of their personal path to heaven.
