#1 As said or indic before, even presuming other nations start it, iff history = histoire' is any measure, America will finish/complete it. CAN ANYONE SAY, "NORTH-SOUTH TRANS-CONTINENTAL HIGHWAY/ROADWAYS BETWEEN NORTH-SOUTH AMERICAS INTO NORTH-SOUTH EURASIA-AUSTRALIA". *FOLLOW THAT INTERNATIONAL-GREENWICH DATELINES BOYZ, D*** IT.
FREEREPUBLIC.com bloggers > "Watch your WalMart [ etal.Mall/Shopping] Bills go down". BUT LIKELY NOT IN OUR GENERATION.

#4 If the photo is an example of the "get out the vote" campaign, then I heartily approve.

Dad was in the Coast Arty in Panama pre war.

#5 Joe, I think building more highways is a waste of money. The scare talk about new transcontinental roadways to promote OWG is hardly relevant. Oil will be getting scarcer as the years go by, and promises of new and larger discoveries are so far just pipe dreams. It's unlikely that new and vast sources of power for truck traffic will be discovered in the next century. We might as well build different ways to move stuff around the world. Ships (and trains BTW) are way more efficient than diesel trucks, and they can use widely available alternative power sources.

#6 'Merkins coming back thru the back door?

I read before (mebbe here awhile ago) they don't like the Chicoms, hired US lobbyists to lobby Congress to come back.....

It might be the only way to protect themselves from Hugo's delusions of grandeur.

#7 Don't mess with Joe SA7708. He controls a good chunk of the Upper Case market, which is curently under attack.

But yeah, we're gonna have to look deep to find trasporation in about 30 or 50 years.
