Boots, that's where you're wrong.  Rail is not needed.

Traffic relief is needed.  The city admitted that rail will not bring any real traffic relief and for sure, not 10+ billion dollars worth.  Real traffic solutions could have been paid for with far less money.

Rail isn't going to bring actual traffic relief.   Rail didn't create 10,000 jobs.  All rail has done is create a financial burden for future generations to come.
