They are being sneaky about this issue. They have Propsition 1 on the table and are basically asking to use the rainy day fund, claiming they have a shortage of money to maintain our roadways when in truth they want to use it on the new railway system. We know what this will actually result in - they will commence working on the railway system, end up having a shortfall with higher than antiipated costs after using all the rainy day funds then come back to the citizens and say they need to increase taxes. In the meantime the politicians pushing this will get their payoffs from the usual suspects in this fiasco and the standard contractual brother-in-law arrangements will be made, pockets will be stuffed, and fraud will be rampant as they bill for services they didnt do, supplies they didnt buy, payroll for people who didnt really work, etc...
Been investigating this type of crap for 20 years. Trust me it will go down this way...
You can say that again........
