No surprise if you live in the area. We voted this down in a freferendum in 2003, but they went around us and okay'd the project anyway.

Metropolitan Transportation Districts are reparations, and are run by affirmative-actioned racist goons who believe it is their divine right to steal as much public money as they can stuff into their pockets.

And anyone who takes exception to that is a RACIST.

State: HRT officials kept true light rail cost ‘secret’ from feds

What a shock (NOT!).
Building light rail MIGHT make sense in dense-pack metros...but it’s
more often a way for engineering groups and politicians to perform
“a total cashectomy” on taxpayers (as Monty Python would say).

Better to build better roads/highways and up the number/frequency
of bus lines before building “rail-lines to nowhere”.

(The rail-line to nowhere I’m familiar with is the one built to
Long Beach CA...at about the time thousands of employees of the aviation
industry were given there walking papers.)

Can’t these clowns be sued for fraud?
