We need water ! Not this stupid train.
We need water ! Not this stupid train.
great –all that money to make what someday might make a good bike path –lol
Good luck with that. Let me know how it works out for you!!
Good luck with that. Let me know how it works out for you!!
And they’re already over budget
Waste of money.
Farmers can’t grow crops. ..citizens can’t water their foliage and are asked to not flush toilets with every use….the state wants to label drinking water bottles bought in stores as ‘ not drought friendly’ if bottled inside the state and put an extra charge on them….but they have water to mix cement. ..LOTS of cement…and billions of $$ to build a crazy train that the fares will be subsidized by taxpayers on top of what we are paying to build this monstrosity. ….destroying communities and schools churches people’s homes …and will be a sitting duck for a terror attack and will cross the San Andreas fault. ..yea….don’t forsee any problems with this top priority project over any water project…
Well said
Amen!
Amen!!
Heard recently that there’s plenty of water under the SFV, but it needs major treatment, why not divert funds away from this useless project to the one we actually need???
What a waste of money
Grrrrrr
This is just beyond logic. This state is in desperate need of water storage, treatment and managers of our water that will not waste in the cure. This mis-management goes back to Gov Brown back in the 1970s when he set aside water storage plans back then. This is a travesty for sure.
We all know this is going to end up being twice or three times as much as it was budgeted for. When has a government project come in at budget. These companies doing these projects for the government know they have a blank check. This will be an extreme waste of money when it’s all said and done
And knowing tutor ” change order” it will go over budget crook ya you ron tutor
Cause that’s what we need. How about building a fkin dam?
I will never step foot on this train…because it goes over the San Andreas fault line.
Goddammit.
What a waste!!!
We need water, better care for children, the elderly, the homeless, improved mental healthcare etc. not Gov. Moonbeams train!
Sweet.
this is stupid we dont need this
Not a priority!
Our politicians are a bunch of corrupt sell outs. Wasting money on this P.O.S. Direct all monies to water projects and gang removal. Let the friggen train take care of itself privately if its so great.
If there was a need for a high speed railway, some private company would have invested in it. Just like Amtrak, tax payers will wind up subsidizing this money pit. How about funding more job training programs or fixing our roads? I want a train to Vegas!
They should worry about our water problem in California instead of building a high speed rail.
Therefore, the environmental friendly HSR project is now taking massive amounts of water from the people to build Moonbeams legacy, nothing more nothing less. Furthermore, any idea how much water it takes to make one load per truck? Oops, I think I have the answer; they are NOT using drinking or irrigation water. NO THEY ARE USING non-potable water for all parts of the construction process for the legacy RR. Any bets on that will be their answer!
It seems all Sacratomato has to worry about is political correct nonsense items rather than addressing to wit: the massive underfunded deficit, the medical exchanges shortfalls, the seriously flawed HSR fiscal disaster legacy project, oh ya THE BLOODY EXTENDED DROUGHT seems that is not even on the agenda, and the best one yet – drivers for drunk senator’s.
Golly, I guess I have lost prospective and should delete what I just said – I THINK NOT!!! On the other hand, stated another way, “I think not, I think JB should find some leadership in his bucket and delete this project and disperse this monies and forever never dream up something like this until all the money is in the bank.”
