The environmental impact statement alone would take two or three decades to prepare and approve.
Don't worry. Leftist/socialist created monstrosities (wind farms, forced recycling, shutting down nuclear power plants, shutting down coal fired power plants, shutting down coal mines, etc.) never require decades of environmental studies or "studies" of any kind. It's all for Mother Earth and because it's "good" these acts only require some government edict and an appropriate media propaganda program to get them done.
It couldn't be because the gub'mint could control the movements of the masses along with food, other consumable, ... Nah
[[ “which takes trucks off the road.”
The crowd at the event responded with thunderous applause. ]]
A Room full of idiots- No wonder this country is in such poor shape!
OMG! Can these people be any more stupid than what they are?
Sometimes I almost wish that were true.
Here in my town we are trying to replace a bridge built in the 1930s. The project has been held up for over a year because the Army Core of Engineers came in to approve the Environmental Impact Study.
They found a previously unidentified wet land and called a halt to the project until it can be evaluated. The entire project is perhaps 120 acres and crosses narrow river about 60 feet below the grade of approach to the bridge, how much of a wetland could there be? The definition of a wetland has gotten out of control.
Now the contractor hired to clear and prepare the land is suing the county for the delay claiming they approved start of the work prior to getting approval.
So of course every day of delay cost the county and the state money. Government is a necessary evil at best when it is under control. Well our government is well out of control.
Trains are how you get the ones that you don't approve of to the ovens....
Sure, but when you are transporting the sheeple to slaughter who cares how long it takes to get them there?
just think, we can have a rail to every commercial building in the US
just think what doing all that would do to produce good soviet era jobs?
You just can't make his stuff up.
Of course, if he endorses Donald Trump, there will be four or five years of vilification of the man, right here on FR. [post #19]
[that's not relevant to the National Review topic, they are DIABN.]
Employment causes global warming.
Employment must be stopped.
Sanders should do some reading.....the combination of government regulations and union rules, along with a go along get along management shackled by both drove the railroad industry into bankruptcy on a nationwide scale. The Staggers Act deregulating the industry turned it around.
It’s agenda 21. They plan to empty flyover country and ‘move’ us to the cities.
After they reduce our population 95% of course.
Good grief! I had forgotten about him. I don’t think he’s been around for a while.
Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Bernie!
“Why are commies, socialists and fascists so enamored with trains?”
It’s the most efficient way to ship people to gulags and concentration camps.
This will make the health Nazis happy, too. People will lose weight.
You are right. I spaced on Agenda 21. Thanks for the reminder.
My bumper sticker idea:
FEEL THE BERN?
...try penicillin
My first question for Bernie:
Are college professors overpaid?
Can't rule that out. There are also transportation geeks who obsess over efficiency and freight trains do use less fuel than trucks. But that assumes you have track going where you need the freight to go. The problem of what do do when the tracks end isn't part of their efficiency calculations.
Self driving trucks (and cars) provide a practical solution that enables the lefties to control movement. The push for that is just getting started.
Socialists love them trains.
Anyone know the tab for Bernie’s utopia yet?
