Yes, I have been. Maybe not all places think that way, but I do see a trend/pattern. Think about it.
Florida cancels plans for a HSR netowrk.
Ohio does the same thing right after Kasich takes office.
Now, Wisconsin is following suit. I could go on...
It's not just limited to HSR but infrastructure in general. The reason behind their rationale? "Oh, that's exessive spending."
I guess the one exception (or one of very few, anyway) is California.
Don't mock me. I pay very much attention to politics in this country. Do tell me about other examples that would prove me wrong, tho. I'd love to hear about them!!
