I agree with wasted funds and pet projects. I am only pointing out that virtually all fiscally conservative adults in the state of MN are angered by the light rail waste. I would literally put it on the top of our local gov. pork list (right next to the baseball stadium they just bought the twins against the publics wishes). Our local radio hosts have pointed out that yes, buses are a waste, but the light rail is leaps and bounds more wasteful. I have to get back to work, best of luck to ya!
You’re probably right about the pork; you’d know more than I do about the situation. It’s definitely true if they put in some stupid plan that doesn’t really reach out to all people (e.g.: Baltimore).
I’m really sick of the stadium builds (it is a revenue-generator, but still - it’s a damned sport). Are you saying people as a whole really didn’t want to pay for the stadium? That doesn’t seem to be the case anywhere - everyone is all hot to have their sport team have anything it wants!
