Daily Willie Green Choo-Choo thread.
Promoting 19th Century technology for the 21st Century.
How are high-speed raillines required to compete in the 21st century? This guy’s starting to believe his own BS.
Regular readers of the Pittsburgh Business Times will recognize their take (and that of most of the slow-witted “business leaders” whom they choose to interview) is that of “What is the Government going to do to fix this economy? What is the Government going to do to create jobs here? What is the Government going to do for ME and MY COMPANY today?”
We don’t really have entrepreneurs in this town...just a lotta people who sit around all day with their thumbs up their rear ends, waiting for Government to come along and make it all better. Pathetic!
...calls for the creation of a government-run bank to finance projects....
A govt. run slush fund. Plain and simple.
This “bank” will be used to reward the supporters of big govt. and whoever is currently in power (Democrat or Republican) and punish those that do not support larger govt. In other words, conservatives.
I can’t imagine Willie Green thinks this is a good thing, even if it helps rail development.
I have a feeling high speed trains will come to a screeching halt come November. Just a guess, but don’t see the rest of the country that committed to the unions and their local lackeys. Nothing like mortgaging your future for yesterdays technology.
Anything to make it pleasant ride to the unemployment office. Nice roads union made.
