We should invest in a high speed rail network between all the major cities. Screw the airlines and interstates.


Who would ever fly or drive when you can get on a train in Boston and in total comfort run at 250mph to NY City, or DC, or Philly?

This, I want this, if I were President I'd be pushing for this.
One of my friends from high school worked in her congressman's office on a huge project to try and promote high speed rail. I can't remember who the member was though, even if it was house or senate. I'll have to ask her if anything happened with it, she's in Belgium working on her PhD now so I don't think it went anywhere...
