I'm ashamed of my own city council and mayor. They were so giddy that they got 75,000,000 dollars for their "modern trolley car system." This city needs that like we need another hole in the head.

We already have taxi and a pretty efficient bus system. Once the few hundred workers are done with this task, we will have an albatross that suffers a net annual loss in perpetuity. A heavily-subsidized drag on the economy.

But don't tell that to our RINO mayor and Leftist city council. They can't think past the next election cycle, and we will have another 20% voter turnout of brain-deads who will reelect all these clowns.

Not that I'm cynical, or anything like that.

The city taxpayers will be subsidizing the operation and maintenance of that albatross in perpetuity. I'll bet the existing bus service runs at a loss already. Most of them do.

It's time for a torches and pitch forks meeting at the city council. You need to demand that they cease and desist from the trolley project. If they fail to listen, initiate a recall of the mayor. Make him pay attention.
