High Speed Rail, a short list of why we should build it.

Capitalism requires growth.
Development occurs along transit lines.
Airports are near capacity.
Highways are crowed.
Population is growing.
High Speed Rail provides a third transit option.
Much faster than car,
Much more enjoyable than a plane,
The Train can take you to the plane.
Why bail out broken CEO’s when you can invest in your future standard of living.
Taxpayers buy employment, infrastructure and growth.
Construction jobs are ripple up economics.
Promote redevelopment around central transit hubs.
All the cool nations have them.
They are profitable, unlike highways or airlines.
High Speed Rail is the energy efficient way of moving people around.
The Trains runs off of clean electricity.
Oil Companies think it’s a mortal sin.
Let's start building.

Wolf out, end of transmission...
