Reminder that it's not just paying for infrastructure; it's the amount of force applied due to trucks and other heavy vehicles. Americans generally have heavier vehicles, which results in more potholes compared to places with more compact cars.

My city very much pays for pothole repair but the number of trucks and full size SUVs/vans are pretty high so we've got potholes o' plenty. It mostly just means every other day this major street I live on seems to have a crew doing a repair.

Have you tried living in a state that actually funds its infrastructure? You'd be surprised...

Infrastructure is communist. We each need to just have SUVs large enough to roll over the rivers and forests so we can stop building all those commie roads.

There's a pickup truck in my neighborhood sporting a gigantic custom bumper sticker / sign railing against socialism and communism. The owner drives his truck, on public roads, to the municipal community center, which is where I've seen it parked.

It's a good thing that guy doesn't have any capacity for self-reflection, I guess, because he'd probably die of embarrassment.
