My understanding is that Amtrak is what happened when the private railroad operators were failing, and the govt needed to step in to stop the passenger railroad network from collapsing completely.

Its by and large not profitable. Air travel, for better or worse, eats its lunch.

Thats a swing district. I am old enough to remember it going back and forth between dem and republican. Im old enough to remember when maliotakis was an assembly woman.

By all means do this, but orgniaze more people than just yourself so you dont look fringe. There are plenty of progressives in that district

I kind of agree, but it needs to be a serious party that proves itself. I wont vote for some joke party that only runs in presidental elections. They need to put in the work and run (and win) in smaller more local elections before i would consider giving my vote.

Ideally, this party would fill in the gap the republicans left behind after dying.

For the foreseeable future though, i dont have a choice other than to vote dem

You get this email that you know is BS, but your agemcy head insists you answer to it. Sonti goes theough the chain of command where ultinately your direct manager asks for it.

Lets be honest, thats not nothing of consequence. Thats rounding the wagons up and energizing the base.

There are three special elections coming up that could take away the GOP majority. They need to do things with high optics that show strength; things that energize the base. Saying "we cant do anything" regsrdless of the truth in it LOOKS WEAK. Thats not a way to show leadership.

Im trying to figure out the angle on that one. I suppose he thinks if its deorbited during Trumps term, he can corrupt his way to extremely lucritive contracts building a new one that he can charge rent for. At the very least lucritive contracts to send all the parts for a new one to space.

By 2030 he'll be in exile somewhere evading prison, so it has to happen ASAP.

Then why did he hire for the "agency". Why is he directing it? Why when questioned about doge does answer in collecitve first peraon?

That shit is not going to hold up in court
