> Same central planning mentality. The high-speed rail project was never viable to build in 2019. California already has a successful high-speed transit project - it's called Southwest Airlines. However, the high-speed rail problem is the exact opposite of a central planning issue. If the state government had enough power, it could fund and eminent domain all the property needed. Instead, private contractors are in charge of the project, and money comes (and goes) at the whim of the Trump (federal) government. From a political standpoint, transit projects are just pension rewards for supporters. That a member of the public could actually get from Point A to Point B is irrelevant.
