Let’s Hear It For Incentives

The burned out section of I-85 in Atlanta will open this weekend. The contractor rebuilding the section was offered incentives for every day before June 15 that the construction was completed. The contractor worked 24 hours a day and now the highway will reopen over the weekend. The contractor will receive $3.1 million for finishing the job early. Another triumph for capitalism. Under socialism, the rebuild would have prolly taken over two years.

Quote Of The Day

From Don Surber writing about responses to the Comey firing. The setup:

The audience of Stephen Colbert’s show cheered when he told them President Trump fire James Comey as FBI director. The same thing happened at “The View.” In both cases, the hosts had to admonish and correct the audience.

The money line:

Comey has always been a friend of Oceania.

Bam! Totally points out the hypocrisy of the left. Why can’t I think of stuff like that?
