Sharing quotes by Edward Liu, Attorney at Law in SF: [Seriously, in the last half-century.... I have not seen nor heard of one major road, freeway, airport, bridge, dam, hydro-electric project that originates from and in America that is smartly-engineered, well-done, within budget, and not subject to cost overruns, problems with defects, labor racketeering, delays, feather-bedding, lousy project management and political pork with lots of meddling and "oink, oink, oink" from American politicians.... known and notorious "fleece artists."
As a matter of fact, it was Chinese immigrant coolie labor who a hundred fifty years ago built the transcontinental railroad which linked the Central Railroad with the Western-Pacific Railroad connecting America's west to east. It was Chinese labor who dynamited through the high Sierra mountains with its granite rocks and hills.
It was Chinese immigrant coolie labor which built the levees in the Sacramento delta to prevent flooding from the Sacramento River in California's central valley, which were under sea level.
As recent as ten years ago, it was steel "made in Shanghai" which enabled Fluor Engineering to build and subcontract the completion of the Oakland-Bay-Suspension Bridge linking San Francisco and Oakland. Yes, steel "made from China."]
