@yogthos and imagine if he didn't screw over the rail worker unions. It may have given them the needed juice to push on unsafe transport practices. I hear this is one of the issues they have been warning about for years.

@yogthos Thank you for the resource. This is not surprising, but I will never become accustomed to such horror.
