The road to ruin is always in good repair, and the travellers pay the expense of it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A broken transportation system hits Michiganders in the pocketbook. Every year, our friends and neighbors spend millions of dollars on car repairs after driving on crumbling streets.
At some point, if you don't take care of the roads today, it's like any other maintenance issue: you're going to end up paying a lot more down the road.
Ruin is the destination toward which all men rush, each pursuing his own best interest in a society that believes in the freedom of the commons.
Roads do not upgrade or maintain themselves. Bridges do not repair themselves or rebuild themselves.
I have always been interested in the concept of ruin.
A reputation once broken may possibly be repaired, but the world will always keep their eyes on the spot where the crack was.
It has never been, and never will be easy work! But the road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination.
Travelling, and being paid for it, is just great.
So many roads. So many detours. So many choices. So many mistakes.
It is the neglect of timely repair that makes rebuilding necessary.
