Gas needs gas to get to the gas station. Build wires to gas stations once and get electricity for years without gas or semis or trains or refineries that all cost money to run. Its simple really, fewer moving parts, less cost.

Today CNN had a piece about railroad strike, it was bit after bit asking if elected union leaders were willing to put Americas economy on the line by striking, asking the workers directly if they cared about the impact of the rail roads shutting down over sick days.

Why do I say this in relation to CNN and turning right? CNN isnt asking rail corp CEOS if they are willing to put Americas economy on the line because of a few sick days AFTER making record profits by reducing employees? If those CEOs are willing to keep profits high at the expense of both the workers and the American economy as a whole? Nope none of those questions, ever.

If CNN cared about the workers they wouldnt be supporting the corporations, and in my views the left is proworker, thats another discussion. MSM is strikeningly conservative in general as is.
