All For High Speed Rail

I gotta say I am totally psyched about President Obama's High Speed Rail Plan. This is absolutely a stimulus plan that will create jobs and growth and enter America into the 21st century-- finally. This is the equivalent of Eisenhower's interstate plan, which still creates jobs and economic growth more than 50 years after its inception. It's called forward thinking America and it's change we can believe in.

Looking at the map above my eyes immediately drift toward the Chicago hub. It's the president's hometown and I bet it will be the beginning of his plan. A high speed rail from St. Louis to Chicago would be amazing. I'm just guessing but I think Chicago is going to kick this off.
