    If your government isn’t planning decades into the future, it can’t meet any needs at all. It takes that long to build things to address large issues. There’s a lead time. If you don’t start planning and building well before there is a need, you’ll always be late and will be seen as useless.

    I guess that does explain the American government actually.
