Here's a moment that's more than a little iconic of what's gone wrong with politics in your 2015 America: Within a few hours of the Amtrak crash in Philadelphia, House Republicans voted to cut Amtrak's budget by about 20 percent.
I beg to differ some. You might not be old enough to know this. (No slight) But,,, Since I served oversees back in the 90s' what I experienced was discrimination from the Democrats (IE: The Clinton Admin) Both elections, most of us never got to vote because the absentee ballots "mysteriously" didn't get to us on time... I am not going to totally blame the Dems for the shoddy VA conditions but, it always seems worse on their watch. It seems to me it was more about their hiring of medical personnel and the way they went about things. I have had a private plan through my wife for years now. Thank Goodness. If I am going to blame, it is the FED government in general. They simply suck at everything they do Dem or Pub...
I volunteer Donald McDuck to personally repair every bridge and highway in the country, first with his bank account and then (when it runs out) with his bare hands, for the next 20 years.
This is so far beyond fucked up that it can't be seen with a good telescope. Fucking Reptards aren't even bothering to pretend they aren't vicious and evil any more. These shitstains need to be arrested, charged and convicted of negligent homicide. No other solution will do any more.
Which will result in efficient, fast and less-expensive passenger rail service, just like the passenger rail service currently provided by... provided by... quick, someone help me out here.
You're an idiot. People died you stupid waste of a human.

Interesting... That's quite the sum, for shoddy service. it's not like they don't have the jack...
He will just reroute all the tracks to end at his casinos and golf courses. 8^)

Do you ever bother to listen to the crap coming out of your mouth?Moran.
Aww, wassamatta, were you frightened by 'Shining Time Station' as a small child?
Unh hunh. And in 1971 dollars Amtrak's budget for FY 2014 comes to about $335,400,000. Nice try.
They're quite stylish but a bugger to keep in place at just the right angle.
Futurama libel!

No wonder Rethugs hate them so much.
Part of me wonders why there hasn't been a move to replace diesels with steam, what with the people who own Congress so heavily invested in coal.
Is it weird that that graphic is getting me a li'l excited?
