The Seattle Times is reporting that a new extension of light rail is being installed for $383 million dollars for 1.6 miles of rail. That has to be some kind of record. That is some $239 million dollars a mile for 1880s technology. It is not about mass transportation, it is about lining pockets.
There is no possible way that a 1/3rd billion can be recovered from the revenues. Who cares, it is the thought that counts.
China gets mag lev for about $63 million a mile. We cannot have modern technology in a kleptocracy.
Update: It gets worse...
Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
