So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

A New York lawyer is suing his neighbor, hoping to get an injunction forcing her to turn off her nonstop holiday music that blasts out of a loudspeaker in her Christmas display.

Nick Wilder, who's representing himself in the case, is suing socialite Lisa Maria Falcone, wife to hedge-fund billionaire Philip Falcone. Wilder lives in an apartment across the street from Falcone's three adjoining townhouses on East 67th Street.

“It’s not like she plays it a half-hour every day. It’s on from 7 a.m. to midnight," said Wilder. "I like a Christmas song on Christmas Day. But I’m tired of hearing ‘Jingle Bells’ like 700 or 800 times a day.’’

Wilder is asking Falcone to “show some Christmas spirit by being considerate and stop annoying the entire neighborhood.”

According to news reports, Falcone did not respond to media requests for comment.
