California High Speed Rail
500 million trips around California in one year is a lot - a lot of poisonous gases. There are only clear advantages of California building this High Speed Rail system, including 600 thousand new construction jobs, 450 permanent jobs and state oil dependence reduced by 12.7 million barrels/year. If that’s not enough, you will be able to hop on a train in downtown San Francisco and arrive in downtown LA 2 hours and 40 min later. Hope I’m still here by 2020.
