A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon you’re talking about real money!

And that’s just for little yellow strips.

The government is killing America one little strip at a time.

I did the math on a new train line in Washington State today, and it cost $433,333 per passenger to BUILD, before they ran the first train. With Operating Costs, it is likely to cost well over $50K per year, MORE COST FOR THE TRAIN THAN THE AVERAGE RIDER EARNS!!!!

Idiocy like this is the norm of government. The only real solution is to STARVE THE BEAST!
