It’s for sure a lot. Maybe the Epa is counting the water that so many Americans spend watering our trademark huge monoculture lawns so they can stay green regardless of drought/heat wave conditions. Some homes have almost industrial scale sprinkler systems just to accomplish this, although I’m not confident even that would get you up to 400 gallons
It was in his recent interview with Pod Save America
All three state supported VA rail routes are on this map, along with the Cardinal, the Crescent, and the I-95 Amtrak routes. The S-Line isn’t, but it also doesn’t exist yet. Same with the Commonwealth Corridor. VRE shares tracks with Amtrak, so it is there, but does not have any visible effect on this map.
It’s not just Amtrak, you can see Metra, LIRR, Metro North, and MBTA routes on the map around their respective cities. And I’m not convinced there are hundreds of regional rail services in America, maybe if you count heritage railroads, but even then I think you won’t be getting too far above 100 and those don’t actually take people from point A to point B generally, so it’s arguable that they count as passenger rail service
Not that old. Between when Katrina wiped out the New Orleans-Jacksonville route in 2005 and when they partially restored the route in 2025. The only missing line I see is the Atlantic City line, which was out of service for about a week after Hurricane Sandy in 2012 and about 8 months for signal modernization work in 2018-2019, so it is probably an accurate map of the available services in late 2018. It’s worth noting that most of the lines on the map have one train per day per direction or fewer also, so if anything this map undersells the difference between US rail service and European rail service
Looks kind of like one of the slices of meat that comes in the Aldi brand Gyro sandwich kit, but less appealing 
I was talking about the UK in my comment replying to the person that said the UK was not involved in Iran, not the US
Well, yes but that is also true for a number of car-dependent food deserts in the US. Culdesac has transit access to other neighborhoods, so losing internal grocery distribution would be akin to one of those communities losing their only grocery store and having to travel 30+ minutes by car to the next one. For example, culdesac is a 16 minute streetcar ride from a trader joe’s near ASU/downtown Tempe. There are towns of comparable population to culdesac that also have 1-2 grocery stores and would require driving longer than that to reach the next one if that retailer went out of business
A lot less on a per capita served basis than it would take to drive all those people that are served by the truck to the place where the food comes from and back again
The gas tax also only covers about half of road expenditures generally. The myth that the gas tax funds roads is a convenient lie to get people to believe they are acting independently when every commute they take in their lifted Ford F8500 Eagle edition is in fact reliant on state welfare
