The same reason why CA is going to have a high speed train?[/quote]
Yep, pretty much the same reason.
But I believe that high speed rail is block grants to the states.
On the other hand, Federal airport subsidies are budget items which are renewed year after year. And remember all those TSA agents we pay to sit around doing nothing because there are so few passengers at rural airports.[/quote]
Makes no differences how the wasted money get wasted. It’s still wasted. Although I would be one of the user of said bullet train, so I hope this money will be wasted for my own selfish usage.
