Good! The project was so far behind schedule and over budget that California had already cut back the scope of the project to where it made no sense. The president only wants to not waste further federal funds on s useless project. |

Of course I would. That's why I'm glad the HSR project planned for between Dallas and Houston is being done with private money - if it goes way over budget the risk is on the developers, not the public. |

Has nothing to do with Fox. They proposed and got funding for an LA to SF project and are now only building a Sacramento to Bakersfield project. It is now an entirely different project and it does not need so much federal funding. Mayhap they will have to apply again for the project that they are building.WHICH IS WHY the LION has told you over and over and over again to fund your damn projects yourself and leave the fed out of it. Ditch fed funding and go ahead at fullsome speed. ROAR |

I agree. Some posters have accused Trump of not liking trains, but in reality, he just wants to insure that projects don’t either go over budget or get unnecessarily delayed like the SAS here in NY. |

Correct. Just because it's a train does not meant it's either "Wow That's Great!" or "Government Socialist Waste!". Each project needs to be judged on its merits, and on whether the resources expended were wisely used. The old tightwads who built the IRT got 11 cent's worth out of a dime, that project returned many times its cost in value.The CA Dream Train Money Drain ain't another IRT. CAHSR is a project meant to consume and disburse the maximum amount other people's money (meaning their time, effort and energy) and buy votes from the credulous who believe that it's free, because they don't personally write a check. Wasted resource$ are never free, they are time, materials, land etc that could have been better used. The IRT was and still is great (ok, turn radii too sharp), they got it done on time, in budget, while the SAS is a 2 track stubway which consumed the resources needed for a full line and still wasn't built or run right. There's a right way to do things, the old tightfists had it. |

Not in LA. Our football stadium being built in Inglewood - the most expensive ever built - is being built with no taxpayer money. So don't act like Texas is so special because it's depending on private money to build HSR. You just choose to use your money to help billionaires. |

If the stadium gets public money, the team should become owned by the government entity which backed the bonds. In my view the only legit pro sports team is the Green Bay Packers because unlike all of the others it can't extort money by threatening to leave.Hint, it is a socialist enterprise. |
