The problem isn't really so much the cost(though it's a costly program.) The problem is that the fast-speed rail should be a NATIONAL(read: Federal) endeavor, and not a State endeavor. No state, not even California can make up the costs for a national high speed rail program. When people brag about the size of California's economy, they're talking about the GDP of California, and not the actual money inside of the State. California would not be the 6th largest economy if it left the US(and I suspect those against Moonbat know that.). If Cali left the US, that means all of the subsidized burdens and debts(think: Health care, etc) would have to be self-managed. Then that 6th rank goes down like a freaking tank. If you guys had a smart governor, you'd use the money you have to continue investing on infrastructure projects you can afford, create more jobs and keep taxes low. California could be a mini-America in anyone but Moonbat's hands. Moonbat is singlehandedly ruining what could be the most prosperous state in the Union.
The only thing the Democrats have right now is, "Trump is crazy and a Russian puppet". After a year of Trump in office, when these myths are debunked, the Democrats will have nothing. They'll be completely void of any purpose.
Not quite. Military service is required. It's not available to everyone. When I served, prison inmates were paid higher wages than what I was given - so it's payback.
Yeah.....even Bernie Sanders is telling the Demos like it is. http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/sanders-dems-are-giving-up-on-politics.502368/
