To the Editor:

    For a government preoccupied with the budget deficit, "[i]t's easy...to push aside infrastructure initiatives". The U.S. however has millions unemployed. That is a more urgent problem than the budget deficit. These people need jobs, the nation needs infrastructure and the economy still needs to be stimulated. Airports and aqueducts, roads and rails, bridges and schools all need our investment, and the time is now.
