Besides getting your railways into shape where they could actually produce descent transport at even cost, would be several space programs worth of effort.
That's not to say its a bad idea, its just even if started tomorrow with billions of investment it would take a while till it had any serious impact.

problem is trains in the US are targeted towards freight. all other traffic has to work around that. the solution is a separate rail line when appropriate which no one will go for, ever.

"Police protection" is an oxymoron. Gun laws are like masturbation, they both feel really good, but after you're done you realize you haven't accomplished anything."

You seem to be pushing the idea that GM overall is unprofitable and only exists because of "liberals" subsidizing this money-loser just because.
Love the part how you don't give a f*** about it being a company that employs Americans--you're right: f*** them!
No, this is just another squealing rant about "liberals" using a manipulated story and while you fly into a rage about this of course people like you put on the kneepads when it comes to Wall St.
