High Speed "Train to nowhere"

[DrLeftover]

The only thing moving on the project is politician's mouths... and a few select special interest groups and bureaucrats who are moving their hands from the taxpayer's pockets to their own.... but they have released a business plan- http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/i/MSNBC/S...l/AJohnson/111107_HighSpeedRail_CalifPlan.pdf

Looks like just more well-connected fatcats hiding behind the Green fad to feed at the public trough with the blessing of the politicians.



But instead of being like the two businesses that just went bankrupt after being Mr. Obama's high profile examples of how things should be, and all the tax money given to them vanishing into the ether, a public works project like High Speed Rail, and Amtrak before it, will just soak up money and enrich those who can get appointed on the ground floor by the politicians in charge of it at the expense of people who work for a living, and never deliver the promised results.



For an example, we'll point to the Northeast Corridor and its Acela.
