Found out from kightp that Amtrak is about to go away. I go call my Congressman now.

The Cato Institute is a right-wing think tank with a vested interest in "proving" that government is always evil and privatization is always good.

Tell that to the residents of rural Oregon who have been abandoned by the private, non-subsidized Greyhound Corp.

I wondered, but didn't know enough about it to be sure. Could you comment as such in my later post? :)

The Cato Institute is libertarian, not "right-wing." Please try and be accurate in your name-calling.

My apologies for the mislabeling, although I personally place Cato-style libertarians right next to the religious right on the extremist nut-bar scale. Nonetheless, my point about their position on government vs. privatization stands.
