I couldn't find anything that actually backed up your claims. I did find that China was late because some parts were replaced, however they are still on time for the project. I didn't find anything that showed China was over budget for the quote they gave or that they've asked for money more. So if it has a budget issue, it's not from them. I did find that the Canadian company doing the wires is over budget by 4 million. Everything else I found with actual info, showed they project to be under budget overall.
Also looks like NY and other States have turned to China to build bridges, railways, etc...
Yep, plenty of reasons why it's cheaper, environmental standards being one of probably a few hundred.

The original bid was made in 1996 for 1.6 billion, the budget now is for over 7 billion, I'm sure you can at least look that up, so 15 years later and almost 6 billions dollars more, you're going to say it's under budget and on time, REALLY?
I'm done, if your argument is that your Google illiterate and press on that having the Chinese be the builders of the US infrastructure, then you have nothing of any importance to say anymore.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
