He [Gov Walker] cancelled the federally subsidized high-speed rail proposal, apparently costing the state over $800 million in federal funds, a significant number of jobs, and presumably some contract damages.Says Mr. Lipson
My district fell for that one and Mr. Costa of Fresno got a free ride into office. The Choo Choo is subsidized by Wisconson to the tune of 14 cents on every dollar spent for the thing. Look here in the 2005 version of what state pays what. Now 2005 is a long time ago, and I suggest we donate to the Tax Foundation for an update. I am not sure how Mr. Lipson figures out what the Wisconsin elected officials figure out, but thet are closer closer to the budget problem.
Fresno is lucky the scam went no further than election fraud, for otherwise California would be paying 28 cents on every dollar for the Choo Choo to nowhere.
