You'll Never Guess What California Is About to Waste Billions on Now

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and 
expecting a different outcome, and if you looked up the word in the 
dictionary, you'd get a picture of the state of California.

After almost two decades and billions of dollars, the state finally laid 
down the first railhead for the project. It's going to cost $135 million 
when all is said and done, according to Transportation Secretary Sean 
Duffy.

Now, Los Angeles is launching a $24 billion "high-speed" traffic tunnel. 
They promise it will cut the 405 Freeway commute to under 20 minutes.

After many months of discussions, the LA Metro Board has finally approved 
an underground heavy rail subway to travel the ultra congested Sepulveda 
corridor where traffic nightmares have long haunted commuters. 

It’ll take just 18 minutes to travel the corridor on the train, that’s one 
hour and 12 minutes less than the typical 90 minutes drivers suffer 
through the famed pass.

The project will also cost an estimated $24 billion.

The automated subway will snake underneath Van Nuys Boulevard through the 
pass and all the way to Santa Monica according to Metro’s official 
website. It will include stops at Ventura, Wilshire, and Santa Monica 
Boulevards.

Many options were considered, including a monorail high above the freeway.

Elon Musk has been a critic of LA spending billions on building tunnels, 
offering up his Boring Company as a much cheaper way of digging 
underground.

No one believes that this will finish on time or under budget. They said 
the project will be done in 2038.

This is a safe bet. This writer has three children, and the high-speed 
rail project has been going on for their entire lives.

California is a giant, unfunny joke.

Flying pigs carrying people on their backs through the pass is more likely 
by 2038

Yes, it is.

Could have put monorails down the center of these freeways 60 years ago. 
No digging, light footprint, fraction of the cost, privately financed & 
operated for quality, safety & cost efficiency. There was a whole plan 
that L.A. bureaucrats rejected.

They probably couldn't have grifted off of this.

That's exactly what it is. Another insane project that will steal taxpayer 
dollars and never deliver.

We're surprised that Gavin Newsom would want another failed project hung 
around the neck of his campaign, but then again, Newsom himself said he's 
not the brightest crayon in the box.

November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look 
forward to America being great again.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that 
stupid people won't be offended.

Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama 
/ Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.
