Extreme corruption in the construction sector and beaurocratic hurdles that stretch the project timelines. Most large construction projects in the US (and increasingly Europe) are merely sophisticated scams by local goverments designed to extract Billions from the Federal Government, partly to create short term job boosts and partly to line the pockets of corrupt politicans and private sector individuals. The cost-efficiency and the public benefit of these projects are practically irrelevant.

To curb this blatant corruption and misappropriation of public funds a multi-layerd response would be required, including but not limited to:
>transparency and profitability requirements
>legal culpability of officials for gross incompetence
>viability studies by independent researchers

Good fucking luck with that.
