 This week I traveled from Santa
 Barbara to Martinez California,
 on our subsidized passenger rail
 carrier Amtrak. Two or three US
 freight carriers own most of the
 track used for passenger traffic.

 The way this works out in our
 free market is that passenger
 traffic must often experience
 unpredictable delays, waiting
 on freight, which doesn't seem
 to operate on a schedule at all.

 People avoid rail travel due to
 random delays that keep Amtrak
 from ever seeing profits and
 getting off corporate welfare.

 In Europe, passenger railcars
 have right of way over freight.

 The "free market" creates such
 circumstances in the US while
 people don't know, or perhaps
 don't really care that freight
 is more important than we are.

Testifying under judge granted immunity
today, the Dept of Justice liaison to the

rule out contributions to political parties
were a factor in deciding who would fill
those vacancies.

I'm concerned some Americans are unwilling
to see how this would be wrong. If only to
note the irony of granting immunity to an
official tasked with working for justice.
