View Energy, Transportation, and Housing as an integrated issue by simultaneously: Investing in nationwide freight rail and high-speed rail in regions where it is best suited. Investing in nuclear energy now, even though it has [...] Did they just shut down the government AGAIN? Continuing resolution vote fails I am sooo tired of the morons in D.C. who seemingly can’t agree on anything, except at the last possible moment and after milking it for every possible hysterical appeal to their base and campaign contribution.
