Build America Bonds | Obama's Infrastrucutre Plan in Action

Rebuilding America before it’s too late

They all need to be in different places at the same time - rush hour. Can President Obama help?

Part of President Obama’s gigantic economic omnibus package (of stimulus!) are a number of interesting provisions that will contribute toward the improvement of America’s infrastructure. I’m talking roads, bridges, pipelines, waste water systems, power grids and much more. Rebuilding, retrofitting, remodeling and rethinking the way American commerce moves about this great nation is key toward expanding American business for a bright future. It will play a key role in our escape from the economic downturn. It will make America as great as it wants to be again, without short term loans and debt relief to prop it up.

And with Build America Bonds, it could just happen. Give it time and we’ll see what happens. In addition to infrastructure improvements, Build America Bonds projects will promote job growth and further the president’s commitment to greener industrial projects in America. Just don’t expect a full turnaround until Obama’s second term…
