Of course I suppose they would actually have to start building those roads and structures first...

As the NIP points out, Caesar was proclaimed dictator in perpetuity, was assassinated, and then the Roman republic fell into civil war. What a fine role model for our current President. Why is it that the sycophants praise dictators? Julius Caesar’s political rival was Marcus Cicero, whose writings influenced the American founders. Our American leaders should share common traits with men like Cicero, not self-aggrandizing men such as Caesar, Chavez, and Castro.
