Jill Tokuda's removal as the Chair of the Ways and Means Committee is a perfect example of what happens when an elected official goes against the status quo and refuses to hand out a blank check because it's "good for Hawaii" (referring to Rail). No one is willing to step up and accept responsibility for the disrepair of Hawaii's infrastructure and poor management of  large projects and government services. We need brave leaders who are willing to stand up and yell, "Enough already!" and then mobilize the resources needed to get it done.
