While we all wait with bated breath to see how our new Lord and Savior, Numero 44 himself, is going to save us from further economic peril, we thought we'd give you a preview of the action Philadelphia might be seeing when the Obama Economic Stimulus Package kicks into high gear. President Obama has made it very clear that he sees infrastructure revitalization as the key to the country's success in the 21st century. Investing in the very systems that keep society running—roads, sewers, transit, buildings... basically anything that needs to be constructed—will give cities like Philadelphia a boost they could never get as tax revenue continues to plummet. And it creates jobs while building the structures needed to keep current job centers alive and thriving.
