Who said it was the Feds responsibility? I didn't.

Yes, it is Indiana's responsibility to fix. However, if Indiana decides, "oh, well, we're broke, so we will do without" and decides not to fix it, Kentucky can, or the Feds can certainly come in (because it carries a federal highway, and is a major national transportation route) and fix it.

Indiana doesn't have any money saved to fix the bridge, btw. They are broke.

So would you like these bond issues (increased taxes) spread over just Indiana's citizens? If they say no, they don't want to pay more taxes, then I guess the entire country loses that major transport route over the Ohio carrying a federal interstate highway?

Or is the financing partly Kentucky's, as Louisville and KY benefits greatly? So should KY have some increased taxes to help pay for it?

Or maybe some federal funding would help? Because the nation and commercial transport uses that bridge daily?'

It's hard to be libertarian and "states' rights' when we live in an interdependent nation of united states.
