The entire purpose of infrastructure is to enable commerce that makes life better for the tax payers who fund it.

Horse and buggy enthusiasts hate semis but people who shop at Amazon love them.

The same goes for people who want self driving cars and the infrastructure they will be supported by. If the world goes that way, it's because the people want it.

It feels like we mostly focus on "to enable commerce" and have completely forgotten "makes life better".

Commerce only happens when people buy things they want.
