The California High Speed Rail project is a truncated version of its former self but at a much higher price.Huh? The trains are still going to run from San Francisco to Los Angeles. And the price is now given in year of expenditure dollars, which means they've actually reduced the cost relative to the 2008 estimates given in year of appropriation dollars. So how exactly is it any shorter or any more expensive? Getting less for more may be a good thing to republicans and regressives but to the 51% who pay federal taxes, its a waste of our money. Fixed that for you. If you support leaving our intercity transportation infrastructure in the current bimodal air and road morass then there is no ambiguity that you're in favor of spending more and getting less. |
