Only about 10-15% of the infrastructure plan actually goes towards what most people considered infrastructure - roads, waterways, bridges, electric grid and communications. Most of the rest of it are things like subsidizing electric vehicles, subsidizing retrofitting buildings to be more "green", low income housing allocations, elderly housing allocations, a 7% corporate tax increase, workforce development (?) whatever that is.
Just a huge pork bill to slip in a lot of agenda that has nothing to do with infrastructure. There is a counter proposal to just do $600 billion for actual infrastructure and only infrastructure which is a much better option.

So what does the infrastructure plan have to do with then? Pity if its not actually about crumbling highways and bridges.
