15. When the news of the power outages in the NE were reported.... |

...in the news here, one of the reporters connected that story to the idea of rebuilding infrastructure. He remarked that in certain other countries (whose names I forget) all the power lines are underground. Because of that, they never have power outages during storms. His suggestion was that burying power lines would be a great 'job creator' for our economy...use the infrastructure bank to do THAT.
I think that's a GREAT idea! ;)
