There is a bridge near me that was rebuild so cars can cross like 30 years ago. They had plans to repaint it, because it looks weathered. They put on 3 different kinds of paint to see which one would look best. The 3 samples are already weathered and peeling by now.

and my axe i mean bridge.

Funnily enough no

Everyone knows it needs replaced

No one wants to agree on what should replace it though

Basically 2 different jurisdictions want to replace the bridge and then either one will propose a plan that inevitably gets shot down and then it's back to the drawing board

So the money is being wasted there not on whether it should be replaced or not
