    California voters approved the pricey proposal in 2008. Backers – including several Democratic lawmakers – heralded it as an inventive concept that would connect Californians and transform transit policies down the road.

    But critics claimed the bullet train project was a waste of time and money.

    “This so-called bullet train is a solution in search of a problem that is plagued by billions of dollars in cost overruns and fiscal mismanagement,” San Diego Councilman Mark Kersey told Fox News in 2018, adding that the billions wasted on the project “could have been invested in our current infrastructure needs, such as water storage, flood control, highways and bridges.” "

    "Or a wall" Senator Bannon added laughing at the idiots who voted for this boondoggle in the first place.


    "I hope AOC is paying attention," the Senator continued, "this is definitely in my plans as an issue when I run in 2024"

    It was only 77 billion wasted. Kalifornia has plenty money comrade. Reeducation camps need funding. No flying trains!

    Great news. I didn’t vote for it in 2008. It never made any sense financially, practically or economically. It’s just like trump’s border wall fiasco.

    • Totally overhaul transportation by massively expanding electric vehicle manufacturing, build charging stations everywhere, build out highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary, create affordable public transit available to all, with goal to replace every combustion-engine vehicle

    I'm hearing in 10 years aviation will become obsolete because there will be so many trains built.
    Flying trains!
