When will our Congressional leaders STOP getting paid?? It ASININE that they control the pay of the entire country. Yet they still get paid. You can bet if their paycheck stopped. Watch how fast they Stop pussy footing around.
Union costs adding up!
If you're not adding value to the work - you're only adding cost!
oh well it was fun while it lasted
Everyone is moving out of the city
why does anyone care? Rail is more expensive than air. Its a failed model. Let it die.
Then comes evictions, foreclosures,repose and real estate to crash. Automobile dealers with close because banks with not loan. Sports are already in the red and layoffs for journalists are coming. The domino effect is coming but light at the end of the tunnel is Joe Biden said law enforcement are good and China bad so I’m guessing the riots will stop now.
Another worthless government entity. I've been on trains where you sit for hours. No AC. Toilets over flowing. Nasty cars. Amtrak is a JOKE.
Amtrak is a joke. You can hire a limo service cheaper for a regional trip.
Dude....get back on your mess and learn how to write.
When did Congress take over pay authority for the country? "You can bet is their paycheck stopped." What does that even mean? Try to write in coherent, understandable thoughts.
You didn't understand what they said douchebag?? Talk about someone not being coherent. Thanks for playing SU shorebillie grad. Oh GFYS. Can you coherently understand that douchebag?? Let us know.
not true 237
I've been burning acres of woods in California to run a train through
o'biden is going to need Amtrak to carry him back and forth from Wilmington to DC every day won he wins.
(snicker snicker)
Covid is so ver! we've all been exposed by now and it is what it it is.
Get over it.
8:06 is on track (intended).
Business is down for Amtrack since their prime patron SlowJoe stopped riding the rails in favor of sequestering himself in his C'mon, Man Cave taping segments of Delaware Dementia Today for his YewToob channel.
5:57pm your follow up remarks are only slightly more coherent. Since you wandered into the area of personal insults, I am more than happy to cross swords with you in person. Just say where and when asshole.
Hahaha. Another keyboard commando. You so brave 8:27. Now give Mommy back her phone. Time for your bottle.
8:45
What is it?
