Fuck this call it like it is - "Sorry you don't have child care, a support network or a living wage but billionaires exist and have concentrated wealth like fucking cancer. Kill those fuckers (and any aspirants) and see change."

Seems a bit too long to be easily read on a moving billboard. We also don't have money for proper literacy education either.

“Let’s gut some billionaires!”

I think we could workshop something a bit shorter.

I've been pushing "Resist. Rebel. Revolt."

We could use the classic "Eat the rich"

We could put this on a billboard: "Want to save lives while exercising your second amendment right? Gun down a CEO today!"

As if they would spend that money on potholes. And Isreal funds are federal while road repair are city/municipal/state for most part so there is that too. They have the right spirit but potholes are permanent

But a significant portion of funds are often allocated at the state or federal level from various grants. There’s nothing stopping the federal government from setting up a “fix potholes” grant - if there was a proper infrastructure bill, this would a part of it. Of course, the incentive structures that dominate modern decision making at the upper levels will never see it hair without major changes.

That, and we're not spending money on alternative means of transportation that reduce the amount of road maintenance needed.
