High-Speed Transit
Come on, America! Freeways are not the way to move thousands of people from A to B. Take a look at your television sets at 6 p.m. and watch hundreds of automobiles with bumper-to-bumper headlights on, creeping along at 5 mph.
Stop trying to grab more land to build these ridiculous excuses for high-speed transportation. Ever hear of 200-plus-mph elevated monorail trains? Look to Europe and Japan, even lowly Britain. They’ll show you what high-speed transportation is. In Britain and France’s case, even under the ocean.
