Calif Train to Nowhere Cost At $77B and

[Weatherman2020]

And billions more just to complete 119 miles from Bakersfield to Madera on flat even ground.

The few remaining Republicans had to go to court to get Democrats to conduct the audit.

California's rush to start building high-speed rail sent costs soaring

One of these bad boys cost $250M. California could have purchased 308 of these.

Yeah the train is muy stupid. IF they were going to build a high speed train, it should have been from LA to Vegas.

High speed rail is the future, no wonder the Reactionaries seek to regress and keep the internal combustion polluters, and pull more oil out of the ground creating man-made earthquakes.

Lincoln got the Transcontinental R.R. going during the Civil War, in the days before greed and fiscal conservatism opposed major projects.

How much and how well did the Trillions $$$$$ of Dollars benefit our country, when spent to invade and occupy Iraq, and continue the war in Afghanistan? In fact we will continue to spend money to treat the thousands of men and women wounded physically and mentally (PTSD) in this war of choice well into the 21st Century.

You can tell the families of the California dead that a choo choo is more important than than 308 747 fire tankers.

They actually are doing a rail line between the two, but on the LA end it's only going as far as Victorville, which is fucking retarded.

By the time you get to Victorville your almost to Vegas. Who’s going to wait 2 hours for the train then have to rent a car once you get there?

You're not even almost to Barstow when you get to Victorville.

Can’t wait until California starts to get to hills, then mountains.

They needed to start out with something reasonable, not IDIOTIC. Obama is not from California, he didnt know what the hell he was doing pushing for that, other than scoring political points, because yes, we all know HS rail is the future.

Problem here is when they come to the grapevine, ( mountains above the central valley) , they cant run the rail over the top, and if they try to tunnel through, they have the San Andreas Fault line to deal with. People are going to have to get out and take a bus for a good portion of the trip then get back on the train again.

This particular train isn't really even going to be High speed as it was sold to everyone, they are using the wrong kind of track. Its going to go slower. None of the details were thought out by the politicians who decided to take taxpayer money to pay for it all. Its just more contempt for you and me from the people in Washington, who decide what is best.

Bribery and blackmail

Meanwhile, the left believe the democrats really really actually care about the poor.

Some may feel high speed rail is the future, unfortunately it needs to go HIGH SPEED, which it won't.

They should have had a good plan before they started, not try to figure it out as they go along.
