But wait!
There is more!
It will go really fast!
Daily flights from LA to Vegas cost $100, for round trip. For the high speed rail to work, the r/t ticket has to be less than that. It simply won’t be that cheap.
I knew all this going in.
It has taken them years to figure out what I knew then.
I have always seen this as nothing more but another jobs program for Democrat voters.
Are these union employees?
Not holding my breath, but it’d be nice if Gavvy Newsom pulled the plug on Moonbeam’s choo-choo. There’s reportedly no love lost between the two.
In a couple of years from now you’ll be able to take a driverless Uber from San Francisco to LA and watch movies, drink beer etc. while not sitting next to stinky strangers!! The train will really just be “welfare transit.” Only poor people will take it.
Proposition 1A allocated $9.95 billion for the “core segments” of the rail system. We’re now looking at costs that will almost certainly be much more than 10 times that amount. I sincerely believe the proponents of this should all be indicted and convicted for perpetrating what they had to know was a massive fraud on the state and federal taxpayers.
The Willie Green Law Of Mass Transit: “Damn Thing Never Gets Built.”
It means Califonia is going off of the rails on a crazy train?
And they will take us all down with them?
