[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by mudchicken FM: Thinly veiled socialism. Get over it. [/quote] As opposed to the thinly veiled fascism of the current anti-trust exempt rail oligarcy which gouges domestic producers while simultaneously bending over backwards for the import intermodal trade? Pull your head out of the ballast for a while so you can see the reality of what's going on. And for the record (and for the umteenth time), I am not in favor of reregulating rates. I am in favor of breaking up the oligarchy vertically for the sake of establishing market based rates and aggressive expansion via intramodal competition. If it takes the ironic twist of separating the infrastructure from the rest and putting it into public/private consortium oversight, then so be it. Just for the sake of posterity, why has it taken two years and counting to rehab the Orin line? The bottom line is this: The mindset of the Class I's that they are immune to the consequences of their actions (or inactions as the case may be) is finally coming around to confront them in the court of public opinion, and that's the figurative place where legislative action comes to the fore.
