One Response for "Inside the Minneapolis bridge rebuild"
The big lesson is not to give the contract to a state official’s friend, and pay through the nose. Both the state and the company selected were diligent, and goal-oriented, something not usually associated with politicians. Of course, it also helped that they got a big bonus to get it done early! You get what you pay for, and in this case, that’s a good thing. Take that you socialist DFL suck-weasels.
