Biden to give a billion dollars for a bullet train in California

[MarathonMike]

The California "bullet train" is a monument to Liberal idiocy. 1 Billion? HA!! The price tag so far is near 100 BILLION. The 1 billion is a drop in the bottomless bucket. The final price tag for that nightmare will be closer to 200 billion than 100 billion..

California’s $100 Billion Nightmare High-Speed Rail Project

The California High-Speed Rail Authority has caused a fiscal nightmare for the state.

...and a lot of Democrat donors are going to make a pretty penny off of the taxpayer's money.

This is how Democrat wealth transfer REALLY works. Poor people won't see a penny but the fat cats will get fatter.

 

[Mr Natural]

That’s like six dollars from every tax payer!

That bastard!

Looks like Joe Dufus is being stupid again. Daily occurrence. Sometimes more than once in a day.

Giving a billion dollars of our money for a project that was uneconomical for private enterprise to construct.

Why should taxpayers in Florida or any other state have their money stolen by the government to build something like this?

I wonder how much will be directly funneled into Nancy and Diane’s husband’s construction companies?

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The federal government has reached an agreement to restore nearly $1 billion in funding for California’s troubled bullet train, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced.

The U.S. Department of Transportation finalized settlement negotiations to restore the money for the high-speed rail project that was revoked by the Trump administration in 2019, Newsom said Thursday night.


The restoration of $929 million in grant funding “will continue to spur job creation, advance the project and move the state one step closer to getting trains running in California as soon as possible,” Newsom said in a statement.

Who needs water, electricity, forest management and road upgrades when you gotz Monorail!

Three years after Hurricane Irma made landfall, Florida communities are rebuilding with the support of $5.8 billion in federal grants, loans and flood insurance payments.

That bastard!

I don't live in that shithole and will never see any benefit. Keep your hands out of my pockets. I want to add a couple thousand square feet to my home--how about you and every taxpayer in the US send me $400K. I mean that's like 25 cents for every taxpayer. Fucking moron.

What state are you in. I bet the federal government has sent your state hundreds of billions of dollars, that the rest of us had to pay for.

 

[my2¢]

Enough money has been sunk down that rat hole and from what I read a billion bucks is only a drop in the bucket to what's needed to complete the project.

 

[Tax Man]

Just what California needs, another bullet train that doesn't work.

The train is not finished yet so the money is not for another but to finish the original.

 

[Burgermeister]

Route it past the shuttered tax-funded alternate energy companies and ridiculous wind farms.

That bastard!

No it doesn't work that way because half the people in the US don't pay any income taxes.

It is borrowed money from our children and grandchildren and when you add years of interest on it then it will be a lot more.

But the fucking Democrats don't give a shit. They will pay off their donors and as usual, with harebrained Democrat projects, Americans will be screwed.

Anybody that voted for Joe Dufus and then ignored the fact he stole the election is a fucking moron.

That is the problem with big government Socialism. You are forced to pay somebody's else's bills. Even when it is for a worthless thing like this.

Nobody should ever vote for Liberals that think shit like this is acceptable.

Anybody that voted for Dufus is an idiot.

I noticed that the people in Republican Bobert's Colorado district are criticizing her for not supporting rail infrastructure. The mill in her area makes rails which will produce dollars and jobs there. She will go down for the idiot she is.

If you are in on the graft and corruption stupid projects like this create then of course you will be pissed.

Thank you. I just hope your dreams come true.

They've spent around $100 billion so far and nowhere near complete. The 1 billion is a joke, they will continue to spend 10s of billions more of FEDERAL tax dollars for a luxury that will benefit Democrat mecca California.

Riiiight millions of illegals pouring in, 10's of thousands homeless, raging wildfires, floods, broke ass sewage systems spilling hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into rivers and oceans AND Biden's priority is the high speed train nobody will ride that will never be completed. Dems are DUMB!

 

[Tax Man]

The money was already allocated and then rumpyasshole cancelled it.

Do you know why people don't ride high-speed rail in this country?

Republicans cause it not to exist.

Earthquakes, extreme distances between cities vs Europe and other common sense reasons dumb ass Dems fail to consider.
