You forgot the picture of the goddess of libertarians, Ayn Rand; an obligatory reverential quote from any number of her books of mythology, or a reference to the libertarian equivalent of heaven...the "free market".
#2. To: mininggold (#1) libertarian equivalent of heaven...the "free market". More like free drugs ! A pic of Whitney Houston would suffice !
#3. To: BorisY (#2) (Edited) More like free drugs ! Dissing your Ayn Rand goddess evidently has you all in a frenzy. You should be posting the pic of Whitney as she was a good 'free marketeer'. She made plenty of people immensely wealthy. Too bad you missed the boat.
#4. To: mininggold (#3) Wasn't andy rand a transvestite ! High speed railist too !
#5. To: BorisY (#4) You need to keep things in historical context. Atlas Shrugged was published before there was an interstate highway system in place.
#6. To: mininggold (#5) The planes were taking over ! Freddi - ferret go after men in women's clothes !
#8. To: BorisY (#6) The planes were taking over ! It was just a novel, written mostly before the modern plane travel era. Railroads were still the mainstay of the economy.
#9. To: mininggold (#8) (Edited) written mostly before the modern plane travel era Fifties - passenger trains were over !
I remember when the REA ... railway express agency --- early 60's was shut down ! Some of the local newspapers too ! Ever hear of television !
#10. To: BorisY (#9) Fifties - passenger trains were over ! Bull, I was raised near an SF depot. The highway system wasn't even financed by Congress until 1956.

Lincoln Highway
Perhaps the most famous of all the US highways in Pennsylvania, US 30 is a part of the Lincoln Highway from Philadelphia to the Ohio border which was the first paved transcontinental highway in the United States. Carl G. Fisher, the creator of the Lincoln Highway, also had a hand in starting the Indianapolis 500 and developing Miami Beach, Florida. In 1926, the route was under construction from PA 168 to Clinton-Frankford Road and still unpaved from Imperial to Steubenville Pike. On July 1, 1926, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge opened in Philadelphia, which replaced a ferry that crossed the Delaware River. In 1928, the section from PA 168 to Clinton- Frankford Road was completed and the section from Imperial to Steubenville Pike was under construction. In 1929, that section finished while construction began from Clinton to Imperial, Moon Run to Crafton, Irwin to Blackberry Road, and Lincoln Heights to Greengate Road. The 1930s saw a lot of work taking place on the highway. http://www.pahighways.com/us/US30.html
