"you guys had your chance to get hi-speed rail and didn't want it!:)"

LOL - they could have shared the money from Ohio and Wisconsin. I think Buffet said on CNBC this week that the California "high speed" rail project cost the same as he paid for the entire Burlington Northern rail road. I think that is all one needs to know about that fiasco. Anyone wanna bet it is never built - as in finished?

Jim,

We're giving the money to California - LOL

They need it more then we do - they can pay for it too.

There's a reason Florida doesn't have a state income tax and property taxes remain reasonable.
