Skeptics will doubt it, considering the abysmal shape of Illinois' roads. It's almost as if our roads were intentionally left to fall apart so politically connected contractors will keep busy fixing them.

Nevertheless it raises some questions:

What the hell is in the $41 billion, oops, suddenly the $45 billion capital program enacted by the Illinois Legislature?

Ya know, as long as we're spending $40 billion why not go for $45 billion? Or $50 billion?
