Do federal and state gov'ts build shitty roads on purpose so DOT employees maintain their jobs? There has to be a better way to make roads. Fuck, how often are they repairing highways? Every two years?

First of all, the fed'l gov't doesn't build roads--it gives money to states to do it. Second, polls much prefer new roads and bridges to repair, which is part of the problem (funds get directed poorly). Third, get the trucks off the roads and you solve much of the problem. Ever driven on a parkway? Usually pretty high quality.
