Are you blind, you have eyes but cannot see.

You touted high speed rail in Europe but then you say “Now: America’s karma is sealed, precisely because it never built such public goods,” The U.S. has the greatest Rail Network in the World and a Publicly Subsidized Passenger Rail system that includes high speed trains.

The U.S. never built such public goods, do you know anything of the U.S. Interstate Highway system. World Wide Aviation, Air Travel and Air Traffic Control was all build on the Back of America. English is the language of Aviation, not because of the British but because of America.

The American Government pays for the medical expenses for more people every country except India and China (and if we had statistics probably more than them too). More than 72 million people get Medicaid and 55 million more get Medicare. We don’t have national healthcare but the government (the people) pays for the care of the poor and the old.

Schools, American Schools, more better schools than anywhere in the world, pre-K, K-12, Post Secondary, Post Grad. No public works in the U.S.?

Oh, how about our National Park system, anyone got anything to rival that? State Parks, most states have more State Parks than National Parks. City Parks, County Parks, neighborhood playgrounds………

U.S. Postal Service.

Federal Emergency Management.

Jesus man, stick to things you know about.
