let's not frame the heaps of collateral damage that would result in as only affecting 'robber barons'.
- JKCalhoun 3y agoWhat would that be? Not doubting you, just can't think of collateral damage.
- readthenotes1 3y agoThe interstate system comes to mind, with neighborhoods torn apart. "Wrong side of the tracks" used to be a phrase with meaning for a reason.
- JKCalhoun 3y agoI assumed the interstate system would benefit from no longer being in a constant state of needing repair. And I'm not sure if you're suggesting more train tracks would be laid in cities to divide communities? I assumed the discussion was about better utilizing the infrastructure we already have for rail.
