and the best part its going to some rural town to another rural
town. NOBODY WILL RIDE THIS TRAIN. its about union
jobs and union dues. Obama needs the money
our rail service in this country is strictly third world.
the feds print money to prop up the banks and to do israel's dirty

oh sorry I read that the rail was first going to go from merced
to bakersfield...FIRST LINE anyways. First leg of
lines...I think they will run out of money soon after bakersfield.

will go and look for some more money. wash rinse repeat.
wtf.....
