[QUOTE="DriveInDriѵeOut, post: 1561786, member: 44954"] My issue with this reasoning, is still that those pension obligations have absolutely nothing to do with infrastructure. Gas taxes have remained relatively stagnant for years, all the meanwhile vehicle efficiency has gone up. Teacher pensions are a completely separate issue. Trying to tie these two issues together after the fact is grasping at straws. I will agree to a certain extent that promises made when the economy is great are up for reinterpretation when the economy gets bad. Would you agree, following the same line of thinking, that social security benefits should be drastically cut, and the promises the federal government made to the baby boomers shouldn't be honored?
