how come it only took 4 years to build the golden gate bridge and its taking a decade to build a d a m n causeway to Treasure Island???

Some reasons the Golden Gate Bridge only took four years to build: no Mayors' complaining about design & adding to the cost, intelligent engineers not adding to the cost, honesty, integrity, pride in work done, no short-cuts, EXCELLENT materials and best work force available. Also, probably no micro-managing on different levels. I'm sure others can think up other reasons.

Excellent building materials is what we dont have today. I would not be surprised if 99% of the materials used to construct the new bay bridge are imported from China.
