Dear CNBC:

It’s either $52B or $54B. It can’t be both.

“Construction stocks could rally as California’s $52 billion roads plan clears major hurdle”

How much of that will actually be going for roads?

A lot of those roads might end up underwater as a result of the $0.00 dam, but hey... :)

Sheeeeyit. Doesn't matter whether it's $52 billion or 54 billion, the vast majority of it is going to go to paying for pensions and "benefits" of retired state workers.

The rest they will blow on illegals and campaign donations to get more demonicRATS elected.

“”:Critics also contend the state has a history of raising money from gas or vehicle taxes and siphoning the money away to fund programs unrelated to roads, bridges or other transportation needs. That said, backers of the plan insist the legislation includes safeguards to prevent the funds from going to purposes other than for transportation:””

Critics know what they’re talking about. Those two sentences are all we need for our laugh of the week.

Roads? What does California need roads for with their wonderful train system? Oh yeah...

And here come the environazis. Every pot hole, every crack, every pullout shoulder will have an endangered weed that ONLY grows in that one spot and all construction must be halted immediately. I wonder how much Feinstein is making off this?

Probably a plan to use it all as a slush fund to pay pensions and provide “free” health care for the subjects of Kalifornia and the illegal invaders they love so much.

California won’t spend the money on roads., They’re going to squander it on Jerry Browns two pet projects: the Delta Tunnels and the absurdly gerrymandered high speed rail project.

This boondoggle grew $2 billion already from the title to the first sentence. Just imagine the cost overruns after the shovels start hitting the dirt.
