we are getting absolutely amogged by the gooks. we've built barely anything in the past 25 years. our glory days are behind us. sort any bridge type by country and see how many from the us have been built in the 21st century. meanwhile china and tons of other gook countries are shitting out tons of them. biden's amazing trillion dollar infrastructure law and we get a pedestrian bridge in arizona and a new terminal at the boston airport. meanwhile an amtrak ticket from dc to nyc costs fifty thousand dollars and our bridges are being taken out because turdskin zergs are rushing our pylons.
it's over.

They’re building a new one between Detroit and Canada right now:

The point is this is one of the few places an additional span was needed due to international trade

Chinese are currently the most experienced bridge builders in the world with 10 out of the top 20. US has Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge (1964) and Golden Gate Bridge (1937).

i'm watching season 2 of the wire rn in honor of THE KEYBRIDGE.
what a depressing world we've inherited. look at the biggest media in the 90s and 2000s: sopranos, the wire, fight club... it's all about how it's all over. and that era seems like a fucking utopia compared to today.
it's terrifying to contemplate what horrors await us.

i remember reading a book about skyscrapers as a kid. i learned that it became massively unaffordable to build a skyscraper past a certain height. so why do we do it? because we can.
call it hubris. but you cannot look at a skyscraper without feeling. you cannot look at a long suspension bridge without feeling awe. we don't build these things purely for utility. they are monuments.
now look at our tallest three buildings. the top one is a replacement from a terror attack. the second, central park tower, is a money laundering scheme for international elites. it's a testament to the rot of this country. nyc has homeless citizens littering the streets yet facing a world class park built for public use and enjoyment is a massive tower used to enrich the 0.1% of other countries rather than our own people. and the third is the the fuckings sears tower, over 50 years old. oh, sorry, the "willis" tower... sears, the iconic american company, was ripped apart by private equity years ago.

you think the burj khalifa is built because of the utility?
c'mon now. skyscrapers and bridges have always also been about being monuments. if it was purely about utility we would have brutalist concrete buildings exclusively.
i agree something practical and impressive like a bullet train would be better than a monument like a less-than-strictly necessary bridge.

LOLZY to just notice now you could literally do this for ANYTHING: skyscrappers, metros, airports, highways, trains. Everything China is ahead now, not just a little but WAY ahead
For instance, mega skyscrappers China has 3,088 versus US 878
HSR network: China 45,000km. USA: 0
The funny thing is now even Pajeet shithole India is building 180 shit that wld blow away Birdshits. 180 airports, metros, new trains, and bridges like this in Kashmir (imagine US even building this)

The US is in terminal decline but somehow birdshits are so brainwashed that USA is numba one and "third world" is SPS forever they cant come to terms with this. SAD! get a gripe birdshits, the only thing u number one at now is obesity, shootings and meth addiction
