Joepho,

Those “fanatical” environmental groups are looking out for you, and they don’t oppose everything.

As for the ACLU, I’m not sure what they have to do with building railroads. They are busy defending your Constitutional rights, which you may have noticed, are under attack by a president who thinks that he should be Supreme Leader. You should be thanking the ACLU every damn day for their defense of this fragile democracy.
