I don’t want another transcontinental railroad, I want regional high-speed rail. Texas is doing it, as is California, and New England is exploring it as well. 
 

The only reason in America why it takes so long is because of the inane amount of environmental paperwork and study that has to be done. 

Florida has it from Miami to Orlando and it is not in demand. Texas might be doing but California is a total and complete waste. The paperwork is not the issue here in Florida, the cost is, buying land, laying track, paying for the trains is billions just for Miami to Orlando. It takes a lot of $50 tickets to recoup $2 billion. I can leave the Magic game in downtown Orlando and be home in 25 minutes after driving 18 miles. My friends who take the sunrail into the game are not even close to home in that time

Sure, that’s the problem. Other countries don’t have issues with land acquisition, so we need a better system of buying land for rights of way. It’s absurd that Japan can built a rail line in 7 years while it takes us 15 years for just the environmental work!

I’m slowly accepting that if Trump is put back in office, there will be mass civil violence in the U.S. the likes of which we haven’t seen since the 1960s.
 

He simply cannot be allowed to take office again.

It will not touch the summer of 2020 except in highly liberal areas. Liberals might smash their own but Conservatives will be fine. If you are saying conservatives will be violent, you are beyond stupid because your side is still discussing someone smashing windows one time almost 4 years ago.

People will not take the Project 2025 agenda lightly. It’s already beginning as SCOTUS has gimped the federal government and given the presidency more power.

Project 2025 is your version of QAnon.  You just joined the MAGA nutters in the asylum. 

 

Since you've been institutionalized, now I can use your garage too - I think I'll rent it out to some illegal aliens displaced migrants.

Except Project 2025 is well-defined policy. QAnon is schizophrenic ramblings of brain-damaged right wingers.

Or perhaps, the wacky left doesn't go all wacky?

Left-leaning individuals and groups will be perpetrating violence if Trump is elected. To save democracy of course. Got it. 


I genuinely believe someone takes a shot at Trump if he’s reelected, yes, and yes it would be someone on the left as I don’t think the right would try to kill off their god emperor

People tend to be angry when their rights are taken away, yes.

You stated earlier we will see mass civil violence not seen since the 60s and now you believe assassination is also in play. All perpetrated by those on your political side. 
 

I don’t want to search for it, but are you one to refer to other people as being in a cult?

 

All my best as you and your allies try to come in off the ledge. Good heavens man. Effing scary.

The state does not provide rights, they cannot take them away.  

 

But understand how you all push for some new world where the state does provide  and hence can remove them.

As I’ve said before, people are not going to sit idle and watch Project 2025 be enacted. No way. 

All this over Donald Trump. Incredible stuff, really.

The state sure as hell enforces them though, and can block them. Gay marriage, for one, is recognized by the state.
