California's $15 Billion Train Wreck: No Tracks, No Train, No Accountability
In this episode of the Scott Jennings Show, Mark Davis discusses California's disastrous high-speed rail project, which has become one of the most expensive government failures in American history. California voters were promised a bullet train connecting San Francisco and Los Angeles in less than three hours, but the project is over budget, behind schedule, and facing numerous legal and environmental hurdles. Despite spending over $6 billion, the project has yet to lay a single mile of track. Davis interviews Kenneth Schrupp, a California reporter for City Journal, who highlights the project's numerous issues, including excessive environmental reviews and a lack of feasibility. The discussion also touches on broader issues of mismanagement and corruption in California, as well as the need for accountability and better governance.
