Raimey, no offense taken.
Now that you mention railroads, locally the leftist (marxist although they won't say so) government has managed to "invest" USD1.3 billion (one thousand three hundred million) in a railroad that does NOT operate. Some have filled their pockets with the least efforts and excellent results. For them at least. This is why we are where we are; and we are considered to be one of the latin countries with the least corruption. Go figure.
