Christ look how shitty the US railroad tracks look in that pic on the left

@DW2 I’ve never seen tracks that bad

@Ghislaine Good thing we spent $1 trillion on that recent infrastructure bill, surely that money will be put to good use and not immediately squandered and stolen

@DW2 The embezzlement of Pennsylvania infrastructure would be a great place to start an investigation on why this country's roads and railways are fucked.

@deprecated_ii Sure, but you’d think that a country with ostensibly the biggest Gee Dee Per Evar could at least prevent its critical infrastructure from rotting to the point of disrepair

@DW2 It's a simple consequence of the fact that the US pioneered or was a very, very early adopter of virtually all modern technology. We had to suffer all the growing pains and all the patchwork iterations, make a bunch of standards work together, etc.
Then once we got the bugs sorted out and developed the technology to a high level, all these little countries got consistent, high end, turnkey solutions built for them without ever having to do anything but write a check to some German, Chinese, or Japanese contractor.
