Great Britain's railways
Posted by morseman on Tuesday, April 21, 2009 7:25 PM

Great Britain will be spending BILLIONS during the next five years on its railroad system 

Take a look at the weekly magazine  Railway Herald  at  www.railwayherald.co.uk  to see their plans and they are developing a 30 year plan.

BUT you say GB is a socialized country.     How many countries in the world today have a socialized infrastructure and have the most advanced rr system ?        I guess the problem today is that socializism is considered as communism with the Government taking over all private enterprises

What say you ???

In that case somebody needs to study political history. Especially the last sentance.

 Made I larf when somebody commented that Obama was a socialist and that the US was heading toward European Style socialism...pfffft.
