These Indian crews are called up and sent all over the nation wherever they are needed... They train during the slow time- have to take periodic physicals and physical testing.... It has been a good project for putting some of the younger Indians living on the reservations (where unemployment is high) to work.....
Better than just sending them government checks....

your right we have plenty that needs fixing.. and fixing our infrastructure would have put alot of folk to work..
had Obama and the democrats not blown a trillion of crap/porkulas .. we could have had alot of things built..
but no.. we had a paltry amount actually spent on infrastructure..
