We all bemoan the fact that this country is not building a HSR serving the whole country. The facts are simple. The studies have shown what it would costs would be to build it and it is true it is high, so where would the money come from. For starters, we could take the 5 billion a year that goes to Israel, add the 4 billion to Egypt and have a nice little fund to start building, after all, what have these countries ever done for us. Congress are now debating the President's request for 87 billion for Iraq with more to come. If the government can find the money to fight uncalled for wars[except Bush] and to maintain the life styles of other countries, if they wanted, they could find it to build our HSR.
