Somewhere in cyberspace the zotted spirit of Willie Green is saddened. Evey one who actually pays taxes in the Peoples Republic of California is breathing a bit better though.

Soooooo....how’s this $100 billion reign in spending, balance the budget and help stop capital flight from the state?

[KarlInOhio]

they may prove that a ballot measure written to ease construction of the bullet train actually made it impossible to build.

As I read it, the ballot measure was written to make it difficult to start a half-assed project that was guaranteed to go over budget and require a permanent subsidy to run. But it seems like that is the only type of project the California government is capable of building, so they complain about the restrictions.

[Logical me]

While they play bullet train the rest of the roads and bridges are in need of repair or upgrading. What the hell, it’s California, the land of insane nitwits.

Wait until the tree huggers step into the game,or will they let it slide so Ca. can receive fed money?.

California....proving once again that Rick Scott is right.

Those provision were written into the ballot measure to ensure the train would be built and run without any cost to the taxpayer. But since the CHSRA’s “business plan” has neither a usable route segment nor a stable funding source, the project can’t break ground. Ditto for the required environmental reviews. Those things could tie up the project in the courts for years, making it unlikely it could ever be built on time and on budget.

Time to kill it!
