    Maybe they can be convinced to support upgrading rail to be a more viable competitor to flying, then? 🥺

      But they won’t want to build the infrastructure! And if they force black people and Mexicans to build it they’ll simultaneously scream “woke agenda taking our jobs” and “look, look how nice we are allowing these underprivileged people work grueling hours for next to no pay!”

      And besides, it’s not up to us to fund the upgrading! You do it!
