[quote=briansd1]One type of wasteful government spending I’d support getting rid of immediately is subsidies for airports. It should be about the number of passenger flown and supply and demand. Why are we funding airports that get only a couple flights a day? Those passengers should be driving.

Come to think of it, why are we funding roads that only get a few drivers per day? Those roads are white elephant projects that are sucking off our money.[/quote]
The same reason why CA is going to have a high speed train?
