Apparently, President Joe Biden’s so-called brilliant Build Back Better plan involves taking millions of cars off of American roads.

The president said as much on Wednesday as he addressed reporters regarding the hotly contested infrastructure bill and Build Back Better agenda.

According to Biden, the plan will spend “sixty-six billion dollars” funding passenger and freight trains.

This, Biden argues, will curb the climate crisis by taking cars off the road.

Biden: “We will take, literally, millions of automobiles off the road. Off the road.”

Apparently, with this plan, the Biden administration is actually taking cues from the Chinese Communist Party.

“If you can get in a train and go from here to Washington much faster than you can go in an automobile, you take a train. You take the train.”

“We will take literally millions of automobiles off the road — off the road — saving tens of millions of barrels of oil, dealing with cleaning up the air.”

It seems odd that, in its plan to curb climate change, the Biden administration is taking cues from the world’s largest producer of carbon emissions.

Although, it makes sense considering the age-old maxim: When it comes to Communist regimes, the trains always run on time.

the age-old maxim: When it comes to Communist regimes, the trains always run on time.

I think the author just made up that "age old maxim". The only maxim I'm aware of regarding train schedules and governmental ideology is that when Germany occupied France during World 2, "at least the trains ran on time" -- when the French communists were no longer in charge of them.

more on mussolini and his renowned trains

As a former journalist, the Italian dictator understood mass media and propaganda, and admiring profiles of the charismatic strongman in the U.S. and U.K. press during the 1920s and early 1930s often dutifully repeated his boasts about Italy’s sweeping modernization. “The story that Mussolini made the trains run on time arose in the late ‘20s and gained credence abroad mainly because of well-heeled British tourists who considered the hopelessly refractory Italians governable only by dictatorial means,” wrote Victoria de Grazia, a Columbia history professor, in The New York Times back in 1994. “His regime built magnificent central stations and upgraded the main lines on which businessmen, politicians and comfort-minded tourists sped between Milan and Rome.”

Interesting. Thanks, I didn't know that Mussolini was popularly credited with making the trains running on time well before WW2.

Does anybody have an example of the commies ever being known for making the trains run on time? I think Michael Austin just made that up.

I've heard it forever, and on our first trip to Europe using the Eurail pass (1983), everything over there was "like a Swiss watch."

Interesting -- almost forty years ago. Alas, since Europe's cultural enrichment, the new metaphor is "like a broken toilet".

Я не владею языком. Я люблю вас обоих. Тогда я был намного старше, теперь я моложе.

(Edit) Tommy's just invited to the party to see if we're on the same page.

Я вернулся в компанию через 25 лет. Мое новое ремесло - как пропагандист заставить Биде плохо выглядеть, я в основном делаю то, чем занимаюсь в течение двух лет. Были допущены ошибки. Их нужно исправить. На этот раз я хочу поработать в деревне. Если меня реактивируют, все плохо. Лети со мной в Air America. Капитан Брэндон

(Edit) I don't expect you to believe anything I post, let alone believe it, it's too kooky. I still miss Punk.

(Edit2) Yeah, it's been a rough day. Me? Drinking? Nah! Never, I'm a good boy.

(Edit3)

Hopefully if I survive the night, me and my A/F buddy Tyler Zed should have the Air America flights starting at 1000 EST/1500 Zulu tomorrow.

FWIW, the pilot of that Jet/Long Ranger bounced the tail off the ground upon landing toward the end. Not good form at all.
