What did Robespierre want? Oh, he wanted a year zero. Oh, we had one called 1619. What did he want to do? He wanted to go after the church. They killed 6,000 priests and nuns. Oh, we went after anti-abortion people and said they were white Christian nationalists in the military. Almost every Jacobin agenda item is what the Democratic Party, the modern version of it, they embraced.

They were Jacobin.

Yeah, three quarters of the electorate lived on the coast. They all were very much for it. And then they said, you know what? We're going to connect what you should do.

And then they thought, well, we need a laboratory rat. And so they called all the local governments here and we were all broke and we have very low per capita income. And they said, would you want a big boondoggle public works? And we said, yes. Well, then... They gave a route from Bakersfield pretty much along the Santa Fe Rail route. And everybody said, well, wait a minute.

For years, we've said that we only have one track on the Santa Fe route. That's the Amtrak, not Southern Pacific. And for just a minuscule amount of money compared to what you're envisioning, it's going to be $300 billion. And they've already spent about $20 billion. But we could make a parallel track right along the Santa with very little right-of-way expense.

Instead of having these trains sit there and wait for the oncoming train on a side track, we'll have them parallel so they would go at the same time. We'll beef up the tracks.

And it was all talked about.
