You have a giant yellow head with a gigantic triangular mouth that features no teeth? Also, no appendages? Strange indeed. Is that emoticon actually a jpeg?
Not that the above quite has anyting to do with what I'm about to say, but...

Don't you just love American capitalism? We just love the fact that our system can produce hundred-billion-trillion dollar corporations whom spoil us with cool things (like iPhones) and cool places (like WDW). The stuff our free enterprise system is so cool that EVERYONE from Tokyo to Shanghai and Hong Kong want their Magic Kingdoms and their iPhones too!

The WDW business model so successfully demonstrates what our free enterprise system can accomplish, that communists and fascists have claimed it as their own! Communists have said the WDW business model is in actuality a scaled down version of communist societies, pointing out that the company functions like the government and all the businesses are owned by it. Fascists claim that the WDW business model demonstrates the virtues of their ideology, pointing out that the reason why WDW has been so successful is due to the fact that the RCID, a quasi-government, is under corporate control. Both communists and fascists claim that perfect communism or perfect fascism would produce perfect WDW-like societies. The truth of the matter is that WDW was created out of a democratic representative free market economy that the rest of the world either is jealous of or is trying to mimic!

So lovely to see an OP that can always manage to stay on topic, adorn his threads with the details for his proposals, and not use the forum as a personal site to vent any quasi-political points of view he may have. Always a refreshing change of pace....

When I'm serious, I'm joking around. When I'm joking, I get serious. You never know when I'm serious and when I'm joking around. I blur the line and intend to keep it that way.

I will say that this PeopleMover from X to Park isn't unheard of.

That was from the original plans for WESTcot Center. I remember when those plans were shown, I was so excited about the peoplemover element of it. I wanted to see the entire route of the system since the plans only showed part of it. Any way, it's cool you brought that up! It's ashame none of that happened in either DCA 1.0 or DCA 2.0. Not even the moving sidewalk part. USO began with moving sidewalks and will soon add an elevated train to connect the two parks. The DLR does have exclusive rights of ways for the trams. They could, in theory, in the future, use those pathways and install a peoplemover system there replacing the trams.

I read this for multiple sources years and years ago. I have no idea where I read it from. It was that long ago. It's one of those things you need to take me for my word, or don't.

In either case, the point I was making was that WDW is a proud example of the American free enterprise system at work. Are we in agreement about that?

Yes to free enterprise. No to communism.
My post was more than just yes to capitalism and no to communism. It was yes to capitalism. No to communism. AND no to fascism. That's important because today's fascists are more dangerous than the communists because they don't even call themselves what they are - fascists. At least the communists call themselves communists and you know straight up what they represent. Today's fascists call themselves nationalists. They even have the audacity to say that they represent true capitalism - which is an outright lie. They claim true capitalism is one without government regulation and taxation. They claim that capitalism with government regulation and taxation = socialism - another boldface lie. Socialism is when the government outright owns the businesses and has nothing to do with regulation. The fascists also believe that big business should be in control of the government. Sorry I'm getting political here, but this is important to know and be aware of.
