Letters: No silver lining in bullet train vote
Re “Political process worked well,†Column, July 12
George Skelton giving our state legislators high marks for “working together†to vote to fund initial bullet train construction reminds me of the little girl who got a large pile of manure for Christmas. She immediately went about shoveling through the pile and, when asked why, replied that with all this manure, there must be a horse in there somewhere.
Skelton talks about a “functional†Legislature that votes for a rail system most Californians don’t want, a system we can’t possible pay for and that makes no logical sense, while cities are becoming insolvent and are beginning to fall like dominoes.
So somebody please tell me: Where’s the horse in all this manure?
