“Among the projects could be a new terminal for the Kansas City airport, upgrades to Interstate 95 in North Carolina and the construction of a high-speed railway from Dallas to Houston.”

Can Kansas City build their own airport terminal and could a private corporation bulfd that Houston to Dallas high speed rail?

The article states that much of the funding will be coming from the private sector.

High speed will never be built by a private company in our lifetimes. They lose money on just operating costs. Company would never recover the investment and keep losing money year after year just to operate it.

The subsidy required to operate light rail, commuter rail, and high speed rail are appalling.

I’m sure Trump’s looking at that. He wants the “private sector” to BOOM!
