If I am included in your "they," the assertion is idiotic. The man is useless. He is the typical political appointee with no skill in the area he is responsible for. Impresses his party by his ability to respond in front of a camera, until someone has the nuts to challenge him, as Joe Kernan did on CNBC. He then looks completely helpless, which he is. If nothing else, stop with the preposterous innuendo that anyone who thinks he is useless gives a rat's about what he does in his personal life. That assertion has been tried and tried and tried, and it's a false, failed course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a perfect example of the utter vacuous nature of your participation. The discussions about our current Sect. of Transportation, whose major accomplishment is spending millions to get NOTAMS, (Notices to Airman), changed to Notices to Air Missions, so as to eliminate the sexism of the original name, in use since Orville and Wilbur. He then presides over the entire failure of that system, resulting in a complete ground stop, ie., death to the system until resolved. Thankfully, didn't take too long. He has done nothing. Anyway, you then assert that people who kind of know about this stuff really dislike him for other reasons, which is preposterous. You then, seemingly without any ammo to defend him, direct your crosshairs on a previous holder of that position who was responsible for the explosion of drone regulations and auto driving vehicles.

Now that we know what good looks like, perhaps someone will step up to the plate and tell us why Pete was a good choice for the job and why he has been a good Sec even if he’s not in Mineta’s league.

Zero answers from the leaders in our government about any of it. The silence is bipartisan, actually, because the blame is bipartisan. The Trump administration overturned ECP brake requirements for freight trains, while both the Obama and Biden/Buttigieg administrations have allowed rail industry lobbyists to relax safety limits way beyond what engineering common sense would ever deem safe. Both political sides open themselves up to great weakness if they attack the other, and so the corporate media for each side will just follow suit because they are complicit propaganda machines. Call the widespread silence a perverse Nash equilibrium, I guess… More than anything, I’d say that these recent train disasters are an indictment of American-style capitalism. It’s the neoliberal culture of deregulation that has been en vogue since the 1980’s. Corporate profits are funneled into stock buybacks instead of increased practical safety measures. Sociopathic CEO’s exercise poor risk assessments, corporate oligarchs hijack our government, average Americans in average towns suffer, the environment is trashed, and crazy-as-f*ck progressives like Commie Kay begin fantasizing about the nationalization of entire industries… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about an admin that gets stuff done. Too little too late, Pete. Just so you know. Oh, and did you read that guys? Pete CONTINUES to be concerned … heck, he might’ve even canceled a vacation this week to finally address what’s happening in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Now, what about those other derailments?

Clearly you are not following this news event closely, nor did you read my previous post in the thread… Leftists already came up with two good solutions a decade ago that could have prevented train crashes like this one: 1. Laws mandating electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brakes installed on all freight trains carrying hazardous materials. 2. A series of pro-railway worker labor laws that would have mandated more workers and better work conditions at better pay. Guess who fully repealed these laws? The Trump administration. Guess which party is typically more anti-regulation and anti-labor union? The GOP. “Woke” culture has nothing to do with any of this! While it’s perfectly reasonable to criticize Buttigieg’s handling of the situation, federal administrative incompetence has always transcended sexual orientation identifiers in American politics. This is WAAAY bigger than “woke” politics. This is about the one-party corporate oligarchy that has fully ensnared the United States. This is about way-too-powerful lobbyists and a corrupt Fourth Estate. This is about supply-side macroeconomics models failing American citizens. And if you boys really want to get super serious with your political talk here at PPP…this is about deep existential questions regarding the American populist movement. Big hint: there is no such thing as right-wing populism. “Wokeness” has been a colossal distraction, and yet sadly it works on the bigots, simpletons, dullards, Bandito (or is he now Banned-ito? hehehe), provincials, and FU*KIN’ JABRONIS of America. Transgender people aren’t your problem. Rich powerful people who game the system are your problem…and hopefully their violent delights at our expense shall have violent ends, so help me Jeebus. Time to soak the rich…in their own blood. Vote for vengeance. Vote for murder. Vote for Glasgow smiles. Vote Marianne Williamson/Nina Turner in 2024.* * - note: not their actual campaign slogan.** ** - note: I’m not even sure if they’ll be running in the primaries this time??*** *** - note: if they don’t run, any other progressive candidate will do. Only candidates who don’t accept corporate campaign donations, basically. So not Biden. It’s the only way you can stop the corporate oligarchy! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And once a problem is solved the organizations and activists that exist solely to address a "problem" while making a wonderful living criticizing and pointing out problems will be out of work. Lots of them make a decent living off the taxpayers through government grants and programs while producing nothing of value. Staying on the gravy train is goal number one. Solving the real problems, not so much. And there's nothing wrong with employing people from the neighborhood with the necessary skills and experience at the job but when color becomes the only requirement for the job while skills and experience in the specific craft become unimportant quality will suffer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
