Mark Cuban took to Twitter to say that President Donald Trump's $1 trillion spending plan is going to take America backward rather than forward. Rather than spending on roads, bridges and infrastructure, Cuban says that Trump needs to "invest in infrastructure that supports and enables the future, not projects that tie us to a less competitive past."

Cuban's comments are not the first time the owner of the Dallas Mavericks has spouted off on social media about Trump's spending plans. Cuban posted a letter to the then President-elect on his blog in December saying that, while he supports infrastructure investment, he thinks Trump is thinking about national priorities the wrong way. "If it was me spending the money, I would take $100 billion of the proposed $1 trillion in infrastructure investment and invest it in Robotics. I would invest it in the companies that do R&D, software, and design for robots and every other facet of the Robotics Industry," Cuban writes.

"Which means we are going to face the fact that, if nothing in the States changes, we will find ourselves dependent on other countries for almost everything that can and will be manufactured in a quickly approaching future."
