I love trains. Freight haulage in US is now I believe, totally privatised (Conrail poof), and a theft-privitaztion pool has been trying to wreck-break up Amtrack(passenger rail) for 35 years.
These thieves(the neolibs) are much more rapacious and parisitic than the railroad guys of old. At least Hill, Harriman,Gould, and the like were attempting to build something.
Course we here, save one, can recognize a metatasizing parasite when we see it. "When the abyss stares at me, it wets its pants." Brian Hopkins
