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.

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.

At least we knew the Germans were precise and on schedule.
Hitler had a great sense of irony. He made the French sign the Armistice in the same rail car Germany signed the Versailles Treaty. ;)

All the ports not moving freight. All the truckers sitting idle. All of the trains not moving freight. While some of that happened as the result of Covid in 2020, I wonder if the election fraud pissed off the right people and they are going to push this government to the breaking point to where Biden and Harris resign?
I have been pondering how bad things have been since Covid Started, and while things were a little stupid during 2020, nobody created shortages unless you meant Toilet Paper and Candy. You had supplies lines running just fine and businesses could hire workers just fine. I wonder if all of this is because we have a fraud in the White House, and everyone who owns a business big and small are pushing back in the only way they can?
So if that is how things are going, then perhaps I do not worry nearly as much as I probably would otherwise because it is the only real non-violent solution to a traitorous problem such as this administration, the deep state, and all the powers that be.
Because those assholes who crave power as much as they do, love money all the more and I know they aren’t making the kind of money they were with all these supply chain problems. People are going to end up rioting and when that happens, there won’t be any money at all because everyone will be TAKING what they want instead of buying it. Fuck with people long enough and you will find out just where the goodness and patience finally ends.

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.”

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.

Sure did. I'm hearing that the goob is split right down the middle like Congress or the general population and a correction is in order.

The mission profile is simple: Do as much as possible to make the Bidet administration look as bad as possible. This is deliberate.

Getting anything to run on time in Italy is apparently quite a feat. I remember a story from the late 1980's, true as far as I can tell, about an Italian flight control supervisor who shut down the runway lights with a flight still on approach because the shift ended at midnight. Ok, maybe on time, but hardly ideal.

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.
