No, it's all about snow job to get the state's number three and four metropolitan areas to finance a HSR line between the state's number one and two metropolitan areas.
And newsflash - not all of the Bay Area's business is conducted strictly in San Francisco. You may not realize it, but some even occurs in the east bay. So if were going to limit ourselves to
one centrally located HSR terminus for the
entire Bay Area, the transbay terminal wouldn't be it.
Listen, I'm all for mass transit and HSR, but don't try to package this as benefiting the whole state. If we can't build all at once, those of us in San Diego and Sacramento are never going to see HSR unless we go to LA or SF.
No thank you.
