State-of-the-art in smart, visionary transportation for America
Numerous benefits with train systems
Faster, more efficient mobility, enormous energy savings, reduced environmental damage - a train system solves many problems:
Creates millions of green jobs nationwide building the new rail infrastructure and manufacturing the rail cars
Pays for itself by significantly reducing our $700 billion-a-year foreign oil purchase trade deficit
Offers a convenient, comfortable way to travel without hassles or delays
Congestion Relief - delivers new mobility while relieving congestion on highways and runways
A major step toward solving climate change by reducing our oil consumption and emissions
Drastically reduces our oil addiction and lowers our risk from the coming peak oil crisis
Lowers our dependence on costly military operations securing oil flow around the world
Lowers our national security risk, and ends wars for oil
Freedom from oil - Powered by clean electricity from renewable energy sources: wind, solar, geothermal, ocean/tidal
Safe, affordable, green transportation for everyone
Saves lives (43,000 Americans die each year in car accidents)
Provides efficient mobility that moves people and goods without delay and waste
Trains outperform both flying and driving in every measure - capacity, mobility, speed, safety, cost, efficiency, energy consumption, profitability, carbon footprint, physical footprint, economic development, smart growth, and national security.
This is the silver bullet!
"Cities that have high speed rail will be more competitive and better positioned to attract tourism, businesses, and high quality personnel."
High speed rail is good for America... everyone stands to benefit!
HIGH SPEED RAIL = FREEDOM!
Freedom from the daily hassles, delays, dangers, and problems America's transportation systems have become
High speed rail = freedom from our current transportation problems
Freedom from airport security hassles, freedom from never-ending flight delays and cancellations, freedom from being forced to spend hours stuck in airports, freedom from having to turn off your electronic devices, freedom from endless traffic jams, freedom from car accidents, freedom from foreign oil dependency and rogue nations controlling us, freedom from oil price spikes, freedom from transferring our wealth (money we spend on transportation) to terrorist-ridden nations that don't like us, and freedom from being pulled into resource wars.
