I’m sorry - for a moment there, I thought you said something about mass transit rail on an island. Surely they didn’t try to float that idea?
Yes indeed the liberals of Honolulu have a wet dream mass transit rail system. It was touted heavily in Honolulu on how it will magically rid the streets of Honolulu of traffic jams. The sellers of the transit plan pitched the almost free cost since ‘the feds’ will be picking up a large part of the bill and the costs will be distributed throughout the state.......That didn’t go to well with the inhabitants of the other islands or anyone outside of the Pearl City Honolulu corridor. And that was it. About a 20 mile route to cost billions of dollars and with the corruption and cronyism in the police force and union construction firms the rail system would NEVER be completed. Throw in the native Hawaiians claiming every single rock a cultural heritage site they stopped the project cold as soon as the first shovel hit the dirt. Politicians that ran against the rail system did very well. Everyone assumed it was going to be free until they figured out they had to pay for it.
