Thom Hartmann vs. David Seling On America's Infrastructure Now Ranked 16th In The World

Progressive commentator Thom Hartmann and Conservative commentator David Selig discuss America's infrastructure and the President's recent works bill which will begin to repair America's infrastructure.

We learn America is now ranked 16th in the world for infrastructure. Just in one state, Kentucky, 34% of all bridges are structurally insufficient. Hartmann contends the debt during Eisenhower's time was 128%, yet that debt was used to build America's interstate road system which lit a fire under a new economy.

Selig believes money is being wasted on infrastructure by President Obama and that the spending has no accountability.
