That's the power of Socialism at play, when Humanity flips the power of Capital over Humanity on its head and becomes the master of Capital, it can achieve great things. Massive infrastructure projects and rapid development are just one aspect of this process, and the US would do well to follow in the footsteps of the Socialist countries to produce along a common plan. The obstacle, of course, is revolution, but rather than being impossible or easy, the truth is that revolution is just hard work.
