[quote user="Dakguy201"] [quote user="blue streak 1"] Mr. Oberstarr must really be in a dither. After his work to add the extera amount it suddenly gets cut. Of course the final outcome may be different? [/quote] Rep. Oberstar is very frustrated by the administration and has introduced his own proposed plan.  His comment on the administration:       "The reality is that the administration does not have a program," Oberstar said. "They do not have a plan. They have not given transportation any thought. I have."[/quote] Representative Oberstar may have a transportation plan, but I'll bet he is short on how to pay for it.  He is a tax and spend politician, which is no worse than a borrow and spend politician, but both of them are leaving a heavy debt load for future generations to pay on.  The federal debt stands at $11.7 trillion, and it is growing by billions of dollars each week.  This speaks to a need to make sure than monies spent on transportation projects, including passenger rail, are a sound investment that will not saddle the country with addition operating debt in the out years.  Unfortunately, for most rail projects, this is not likely to be the outcome.
