it doesn't require any FEDERAL money - folks, the government doesn't run the electric company, so the "Iraq Money" comments have nothing to do with it.
It IS easy to solve - but it takes time. The first part is the state, or even local community to pass a law:
All new development shall use underground utility services
Guess what? It starts getting fixed
The later they can say:
By XXXX date, all feeders below YYY volts must be moved underground (a LOT of VERY high voltage lines are in the air for VERY good reasons). Thing is, you lose the real big stuff, you lose a lot of homes, BUT you have a lot fewer wires to worry about, so they get fixed faster
