[quote]QUOTE: <font color="blue">Where did I ever say I wanted the US to operate like France? thats out of context. I just said government funding of HSR is a good idea. I can tell you've never been to France...Actually visiting a place before you condemn it is always a good idea, I used to think Italy was a dump, till I spent some time there, now I wont hesitate to take a visit there ...Ah Venice! France is a beautiful place, amazing country sides, terrific wine, food, OH the cheeses! But if you dont like France might I suggest Japan? Perhaps the most awesome national rail system in the world, all funded by the government, and great sushi too!</font id="blue">[/quote] <br /> <br />It is apparent you have not been there recently either. Have you looked at the headlines about France; the place is in a near civil war. You always want socialism, and France is run on total socialism, which is just a mild from of communism. People don’t like working to pay for nonsense like that, so they get mad and burn things. France will never compare to America, head out to Idaho, and take a look at the wide-open country on an early morning, no distant smoke from burning vehicles, no stench of the unabated populace. Not to mention, you can’t hunt in France, or even own a gun. Food well, I will take a hamburger any day of the week, and I can’t drink wine, plus if you want cheese got to Wisconsin. If you want real good eats nothing can ever beat a mess of homemade fried chicken, that’s good eatin. Japan would be better, but you idea of awesome, is being built on the backs of laborers being stolen from. If I were to steal rob banks, and mug people to build a HLS, you would call me a criminal. Were I to have congress do it, you would be pleased as punch. <br />I have decided to take you up on you offer, why don’t you get together with you friends and pay for a ticket for me to Europe. If it is as good as you say, I might change my mind. IF THESE PLACES ARE SO GREAT-<font color="red"> WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?</font id="red"> <br />
