California's High Speed Train to Nowhere
2011-11-14
Time to pull the plug, right? Not according to Gov. Jerry Brown (D). The new "business plan is solid and lays the foundation for a 21st-century transportation system," he said. Equally upbeat, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood offered Mr. Brown his congratulations on "a sound, step-by-step strategy for building a world-class high-speed rail network."

Alas, there is only one place where the state could finish the necessary environmental impact statements and other bureaucratic requirements before the use-it-or-lose-it date: a thinly populated 130-mile stretch of flatland that starts just north of Fresno and ends just north of Bakersfield.
At least Migrant Workers, Illegal Aliens, Undocumented Democrats can travel between farm jobs quickly.
