      California is building a high-speed rail. It's been under construction since 2008.

      It's only $100 billion over budget as of last year, at a measly estimated $128 billion, without a single mile of tracks laid.

      Let that be a lesson to anyone who doubts the efficacy of the capitalist system.

            It became a complete shitshow honestly.

            People are still arguing over its implementation and it's cost us several hundred million dollars with zero construction actually being done.

            I hate this state so fucking much.

            Edit: for the record, yes I am actually one of our resident grass touchers and the California failure to implement HSR in accordance with the OVERWHELMING will of the voters is yet another drop in the bucket of Nakoichi's revolutionary rage reserve.
