He’s been saying it for some time. Obama said that’s an early step in getting rid of the suburbs.

President Joe Biden on Wednesday again promoted his infrastructure dreams of taking people out of their gas-powered vehicles and putting them on trains and other forms of public transit.
“We’re investing almost $100 billion in public transit and rail, for all the studies show that it will take millions of cars off the road and significantly reduce pollution if there’s a serious transportation system available,” he said.
The president spoke about public transit during his speech on high gas prices Wednesday, promoting it as a potential solution.
Biden frequently talks about trains, since he has a deep love for them after traveling aboard the Amtrak commuter train to Delaware.
“We will take literally millions of automobiles off the road — off the road — saving tens of millions of barrels of oil, dealing with cleaning up the air,” he boasted during an October event at an electric trolley museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
During the event, he admitted he was envious of China’s high-speed trains and wanted more of them in America.
“If you can get in a train and go from here to Washington much faster than you can go in an automobile, you take a train,” he said.
Biden received $66 billion in government spending to subsidize trains in his $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that passed last year.

He’s already doing it with inflation. Soon even the trains and public transportation won’t be able to afford to run.
It will work as well as kali-fornia’s hi-speed choo-choo.
Most Useless President ever since they invented presidents
Kinda like the invitations 6 million people of a certain religious group got in the 1930’s and 1940’s - “It vill be fine, you are going to a nice place to be resettled...Get on zee train...”
Mass transport?
What happens in the unlikely event of an airborne virus pandemic?
Why not set a build quota for each maker, capping production?
This is wartime, right?
Too much crime and stank to ride the rails.
Let`s buy Joe Blow a one-way ticket on the next train to Mexico City.
Joe, Good luck with your trains. Sound Transit is spending billions and billons of dollars on trains and buses here in the Puget Sound area and the trains and buses are nearly empty - except for the druggies.
He wants to steal from the poor to line the pockets of his rich cronies. Steal my vehicle and leave me with no way to get to work.
The DEMOCRATS want to CONTROL WHERE YOU GO!!!
But on the bright side, the cities will be named in non-triggering manner, such as “Mega City One”...
“He wants you to ride the trains so that Black youts can mug and generally savage you.”
...and throw you under the train.
The nation simply cannot operate without cheap fuel. No food! No trade! You won’t even get Amazon stuff. This is an operation of conquest of America by the criminal/communist cabal. This is what “transition” means.
It’s a removal of freedom of movement and at the same time a push to move more to urban areas.
