No. It's a step to reduce the time spent in court.
There is an initiative being prepared for the November ballot to cancel the high speed rail project. Hopefully this will all be moot then.

Of course he does. Spend like there’s no tomorrow. It makes him and his Lib supporters feel good and he’s old enough that he’ll be dead when the whole Ponzi Scheme collapses and the next generation has to pick up the pieces.

Guv Moonbeam is smacking down his friends the eco-obstructionists so he can create a unionized construction cluterfunk so he and fellow Dems get more union campaign donations. Plus the Chinese lobbyists exerted pressure (and bribes) because they will build the trains

It would seem that the stick used by greens and dims to derail (pun intended) productive business projects is in danger of being used against this boondoggle. Can’t have that can we. So we’ll just tweak the law a bit to favor us.
- - 100 billion (pre-temporary-downward revision for election season)
- - Out-of-state prime (GE)
- - Off-shore designers (china)
- - Not needed (or wanted), who in his or her right mind would pay $100s to travel between the thriving metropolises of Merced to Bakersfield in twice the time (considering parking, ticketing, security, baggage handling a-la-airlines, and of course, the train will ALWAYS BE LATE, ALWAYS, ALWAYS!
- - The first leg, Merced to Bakersfield is scheduled for 2017, hah, it's 2020 or later. Unions = construction delays, ALWAYS.
- - What the Keynesians fail to realize is that taking 100 B from the productive sector of the California economy is so toxic to the economic climate, that it could be extraordinarily difficult to recover.
- - Net employment will be much less, businesses and taxpayers will out-migrate, and financial chaos is a possibility.

I believe when people say they want Calif to die, they mean the State government. Everywhere, government is the enemy of Freedom.
Dear environmentalists: Old Jer knows that not one single passenger will ride this train. It’s all about putting taxpayer money into Democrat’s pockets.
“I hear that train a comin’
It’s rollin’ money to me
My bank account’s gettin’ bigger
Thanks to good old Jerry
California may be broke
But taxpayer money’s buildin’ this rail
The money’s goin’ to Democrats
And Jerry ought to be in jail.”
THE TAXPAYER’S BLUES - Jerry Brown
Yep - Merced to Bakersfield, approximately 165 miles (per Mapquest). About a two and a half hour drive.
I like Californians... especially Conservative Californians... but your state government is rotten.

Plus the train line ends in Sacramento so the communist Gov’t drones can hop on their communist trains to go home or to Disneyland.

Most all of the produce over here is not from California & I know none of it from China - Fortunately California isn’t needed to feed America - food can be grown virtually anywhere with a bit of preparation.
Now maybe it is absolutely needed to feed California but thats another story
This is like a fantasy world, except it's REALLY happening.
God help us all.
.. and fund it with what, Moonbeam? Hot air? doof .
“Good... I despise californicate and the sooner it goes absolutely broke and in default... the sooner we can kill off the progressive cancer that is killing the rest of America... if it is not too late.”
As President Reagan would say, “there he goes again!” So to hear you tell it, ALL the liberals are in California, Right? What a maroon! Yeah, there are a lot of them here, mostly in the cities, probably just like wherever you live. Just a suggestion, maybe you should be hoping that us Conservatives that live here in CA ultimately prevail so the crap here doesn’t get on you too! Because we were “invaded by the Liberals from the NE a couple of generations ago, and once they take a crap where they land, they move on, just like termites! Just saying.
Wrong... and no one could extrapolate that idea from anything that I said in this thread. Jim Robinson lives in California and he is one of this Nation's most staunch Conservatives. He is on a first name basis with Palin!
“What a maroon! Yeah, there are a lot of them here, mostly in the cities, probably just like wherever you live.”
I live in Mississippi... one of the most Conservative States in the union. We have liberals too... not many but we have them. I despise them too. Our State government is not liberal... it has been but we have worked hard to change that and we have a fairly Conservative State government and a decent governor... after libtard fat ass haley (pardongate) barbour... a corporatist if there ever was one.
“Just a suggestion, maybe you should be hoping that us Conservatives that live here in CA ultimately prevail so the crap here doesn’t get on you too!”
You are delusional dude... your State is dead meat. You cannot return to solvency... you can't make gains in your State. Each election entrenches the communist roots deeper into the living Flesh of your one GREAT STATE. You are but one or two generations away from reconquesta. Your state elected jerry moonbeam hippie dog dope head brown... for a second time! I know that no Conservative voted for him... and that paints the picture of California today. There are just not enough Conservatives left to make any significant difference.
“Because we were “invaded by the Liberals from the NE a couple of generations ago, and once they take a crap where they land, they move on, just like termites! Just saying.”
I see no evidence of any hope for California. All that I see are dims winning more and more positions of power... I see nothing in any sector in California that is doing anything but sliding further to the left. I do not despise Californians... I care about all Conservatives in that State... but your government and your government's mindset... I despise that to the power of ten. California infects the rest of the country with its communist agenda... from school books to autos.
If you take the time to read ALL of my posts on this thread then you will see that you have attacked me wrongly... unless you actually think that you can rationalize your States government and the cancer that has already caused it lethal damage.

Used to work in Memphis, been to MIssissippi many times. It’s the one state in the union that’s worse overall than is California. Actually had an employee who had a brother incarcerated in Parchment Prison ( you know the place where they attach the leads from an old telephone magneto to a prisoner’s genitals and “ring them up” to gain compliance). It’s simply amazing that someone who calls MS home, has the temerity to tell us all about how things are going to turn out here in California. Talk about delusional! You live in the home of the double wide and the outdoor john! At least we still live in decent homes with running water and indoor plumbing. You don’t know squat about California, what’s really going on here, and how we live.
