This is why there is a Tea Party. Now we can call it the Coke & Tea Party.
Speaking of the Gestapo, for some reason went to the Congressman Even Jenkins of W. Va. gov web page and remembered that the attack on the coal industry is an attack on religious gun toting citizens. Also, he had a letter about the Feds NOT getting new safety standards on rail tank cars and high hazard flammable trains. Who owns those railroads? Why isn’t this being done quickly since rail lines are an easy terrorist target?
I get your point, but it’s off-base.
The Boston Tea Party wasn’t about a corporation and I’m not about to embrace a corporation which employs a department solely for the purpose of operating to pay the least amount of tax.
There will be those that argue that it’s high corporate tax rate that causes corporations to run overseas and evade taxes. But the fact is that in being permitted to do so, the corporations, the shareholders and the owners have no motivation to change the government most of us agree is the principal problem. Thus, without empowerment by all of us ‘little people’, we have a self-perpetuating nightmare. Free-trade; what a joke.
No, I don’t want a ‘Coke’ party. Frankly, Coke is part of the reason we have an epidemic of modern disease and I would very much like to see this case be litigated in open court, not settled behind closed doors.
If we get Trump and he doesn’t start the process of correcting this train wreck, there is only one outcome...the only question being what the trigger(s) will be.
Most tank cars are not railroad owned... but leased. The tank car rules are onerous at best... and aimed to harm railroads and their stockholders. Regardless, these rules will be jammed up their ass and compliance, including refitting all these cars with expensive electrically-controlled braking systems... which does not do a single thing to prevent the derailments that have happened in the past, will be forced... under the guise of “Safety”. Buy tank car manufacturer stock.
“remembered that the attack on the coal industry is an attack on religious gun toting citizens.”
Interesting connection...
