6 Billion Spent on Repairing San Francisco Bridge in China

China now appears to not only be making most of the clothes, toys and trinkets but now is also making bridges for the western world. Rather than repairing the San Francisco Bridge that was damaged in 1989 in North America itself it is being done so in china and shipped over to the USA in parts.

This seems to be one of those 'some assembly required' items that China has yet again outdone other in. Rather than giving their own country who they claim is in a economical crisis work they are giving it to a country that is no little distance away. China must have had an excellent offer for the USA to go so out of it's way to have them repair this bridge.
