Obama’s New Budget Adds More Cash For High Speed Rail…

… which is a good thing for this country. The problem is that the Republicans living over in fantasy land will argue that the United States cannot afford it due to the deficit.

"There are key places where we cannot afford to sacrifice as a nation -- one of which is infrastructure," Biden said in a written statement. There is a pressing need "to invest in a modern rail system that will help connect communities, reduce congestion and create quality, skilled manufacturing jobs that cannot be outsourced."
