The Road to Power

The bloggers at Smart City Consulting (Memphis) recently wrote a good post about transportation. The trigger was Senator Mark Norris' transparently puppetlike call for "restoration" of TDOT funds that should never have been locked down like they were before Governor Bredesen set them free.

SCC dispenses some of the ugly truth, but I have a feeling that there's a lot they left yet uncovered. The Roadbuilders Association lobby is "muscular" to the point that it brings words like "goon" and "thug" to mind.
