The railroads are private property.

An OG private-public partnership.

What a childish response.

The fact is: everyone should stay in-touch with their congresspeople, elect new congresspeople when possible, and continue to argue that Big Corp and Big Oil and Big PACs should NOT influence those congresspeople, or they'll be exposed and voted out of office. This is how the system has been designed for ages. It doesn't work much of the time. The Biden Administration and Dems have been pushing bills that call for improvements to train services in the US. The GOP are actively AGAINST those improcements. The Amtrak asshole chump should note what has happened to allow for the improvements to services. Half the government support those services.

The problem with anything is the non-White population. Get rid of them and we could be like Scandinavian countries. But it will never happen when they are here.

Genocide and ethnic cleansing has never worked, in 100,000+ years. There are numerous resources on this. Have a look.

Worked plenty of times.

Hey, if we can keep trying communism even though it fails repeatedly, why not genocide and ethnic cleansing?

[–]no_u 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Because they failed?

There's been no properly functioning communist nation, nor decent attempts to develop one. Previous attempts merely resulted in dictatorships or oligarchies.

It's certainly technically feasible to kill let's say 99% of a particular ethnic group world. In fact, if any of the super rich billionaires wanted to fund it, it would even be possible for a private organization to do so.

That's false, and even if it were possible, it's not why this kind of thing fails. It fails because there are other serious costs associated with genocides. We've seen how this has developed historically.

Jesus Christ would say he never knew you. Burn in hell.

What is the likelihood that old rail lines would be where they are needed currently? This doesn't stand to reason.
