Anybody find it ironic that trains were used by another famous fascist to transport those he considered undesirables ?

Freight railroads play an important role in the U.S. economy, especially for moving imports and exports using containers, and for shipments of coal and oil. According to the British news magazine The Economist, "They are universally recognised in the industry as the best in the world."[23] Productivity rose 172% between 1981 and 2000, while rates decreased by 55% (after accounting for inflation). Rail's share of the American freight market rose to 43%, the highest for any rich country.[23]
U.S. railroads still play a major role in the nation's freight shipping. They carried 750 billion ton-miles by 1975 which doubled to 1.5 trillion ton-miles in 2005.[24][25] In the 1950s, the U.S. and Europe moved roughly the same percentage of freight by rail; by 2000, the share of U.S. rail freight was 38% while in Europe only 8% of freight traveled by rail.[26][27] In 2000, while U.S. trains moved 2,390 billion ton-kilometers of freight, the 15-nation European Union moved only 304 billion ton-kilometers of freight.[28] In terms of ton-miles, railroads annually move more than 25% of the United States' freight and connect businesses with each other across the country and with markets overseas.[24]

U.S. freight railroads operate in a highly competitive marketplace. To compete effectively against each other and against other transportation providers, railroads must offer high-quality service at competitive rates. In 2011, within the U.S., railroads carried 39.9% of freight by ton-mile, followed by trucks (33.4%), oil pipelines (14.3%), barges (12%) and air (0.3%).[citation needed] However, railroads' revenue share has been slowly falling for decades, a reflection of the intensity of the competition they face and of the large rate reductions railroads have passed through to their customers over the years.



Trains are a huge part of the American transportation economy - and highly cost-effective for bulk transport.

You are welcome to give up anything of Yours that came by Train Transport.

At least Part of the DPST Group would state- "It didn't happen!"
Irony!!!!

Too bad the tax cuts were put on a credit card. It reminded me of a drunk uncle I had that maxed out his debt and credit cards and then filed for bankruptcy. These tax cuts have lowered the amount of money coming into the treasury and will have to be paid off in 2021 and we will have add another 1.75 trillion to the deficit. You have to pay your bills but Republicans think they are getting a free lunch.
