I don’t believe the much deserved criticism of California’s HSR to be “a pile of spin”, based on “irrational hype” nor “ignorant.” The first phase of construction is indeed a train from nowhere to nowhere. The project is not financially sound and I welcome all opposition, whether from SWA or other sources. In fact, I encourage more of it. Simply put, Prop1A should be repealed and the HSRA abolished.
BUMP! What you said.
