Jobs derailed:
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/politics/os-scott-rejects-rail-money-20110216,0,2863027.storyHere's the thing...High speed rail may not be the answer today. But in the future? Are we going to wait until the interstates are so full nobody goes anywhere? (Well, they probably won't. Everyone in the state will be unemployed if Scott sticks around.) How many thousands of jobs will be lost by him turning down this money? Does he have jobs out there to cover? Maybe with his pill mill buddies? Too many Republicans are so short-sighted they only look at today and have no comprehension what tomorrow will bring.
I’m glad Scott wasn’t around during the Eisenhower years. We wouldn’t have any interstates today.
It's a boondoggle. If you are concerned about public transportation, more busses is an affordable answer.
High Speed rail? As Chris Christie said, it's budget candy. It's not a serious project.
