Apparently Leuck is unaware that funding of the US interstate highway
system is also federal.  In fact, the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956
required that the federal government pay 90% of the cost of the
interstate highway system.

It's also both an indicator and a causative factor in the downward
spiral of the economy since the Shrub took office.

The fact that Leuck doesn't understand why this is important
indicated the kind of person he is.

When Repugnicans lower taxes the lion's share goes to the wealthiest
1% while working families are left in the cold.  "Tort reform" is a
euphymism for protection of big business against lawsuits from
ordinary Americans.

Much of the money has been misappropriated by dishonest politicians
(local, state and federal) and greedy corporations.  Insurers raised
their rates skyward while sending out "specially trained" adjusters
to deny coverage to tens of thousands of American families.  The rich
fought back.  The lower middle class and the poor simply lost.  They
did, as the Shrub would put it, a "keckova" job on working class
Americans -- the ones the radical right claim they care so much
about.
