High Speed Trains From Elsewhere May Go To Nowhere

Obama is giving Ohio big money to start a high speed train system. Huh? Why? It's a big money we don't have that will spent on trains that nobody wants which will be used by crowds of people big enough to almost fill a Prius which will get people there faster and cheaper. In other words, high speed trains in Ohio is a government boondoggle just for show.

Oh, and the boondoggle will be foreign built using foreign technology.


Another tidbit not quite bantered about by supporters is that the money isn't enough to complete the system here in Ohio. Who really needs a high speed train from the wrong side of Cleveland to Blue Ball, Ohio?
