[QUOTE]Originally posted by Brian Keefer: [QB] If the NEC and California want to take 100% of the subsidy by eliminating the LD routes then they need to pay for 100% of their rail service and quit relying on the rest of the country to subsidize them. I think this is a crazy argument. It is not about conservative or liberal, it is really about wanting to take all of the available rail funds and spend them on the two coasts while eliminating everything in between. Remember, the people in between are also paying tax dollars too. This is the root of the problem. When you ask for pork you must give pork. Maybe Amtrak and the nation would be better served by making this less of a "pork" issue and making a true national transportation/energy plan. This plan would have to include rail as well as air and roads. My two cents worth. Brian Brian [/QB][/QUOTE]
