I wonder how many desalination plants they could build with that money to address their water issues. Or they could shore up their failing pension system.

Your first question is why the D-I-L's family is totally against the money pit...they are in farm country and have seen the impacts of the no-water policies of the current party in control (my D-I-L's mom is a Dem who constantly fights with her coastal counterpart on this issue)

The wife's cuz is from a surfer hipster hippie family...they want to be able to cruise up to San Fran for a day at low cost, and the train i their promise of just that...

I think updating I-15 from Las Vegas to SoCal would be a better investment along with expanding regular train service and desalination.

I'm enjoying the heck out of watching the "black people can't be racist" crowd fight with other liberal groups like the ADL over Louis Farrakhan. Completely delicious. 8-)

The Womens March is clearly sexist :nod: (and apparently led by anti-semitic homophobes :? ).

Here's another instance of liberals eating their own with the opposite controversy (Zionists limiting the speech of muslims)...

Weiss was on Bill Maher last week and Bill couldn't defend her fast enough.

(The fact I even posted this probably makes me a muslim loving apologist and anti-semite)
