Looking good Gov Moonbeam! Looking good!

Gotta love this comment..............

The California system is being built by an independent authority that has never built anything and depends on a large network of consultants and contractors for advice. Engineering and construction experts have warned that early cost and schedule problems will be difficult to reverse and that early cost increases will likely drive up the final cost of the project.

This comment is classic as well.............

Brown, meanwhile, has sought to shield the project from interference. He vetoed a bill with bipartisan support in September that would have increased oversight of the project and clarified estimates of how much the project will cost. And last January, a joint committee rejected a proposal to ask the California state auditor to examine the project for the first time in four years.

Holy shit....this one is priceless..........

The federal report also raises concerns with the rail authority’s billing system. It found that the state authority requires three months to process an invoice — too long, the report suggests.

What a clusterf#$k! Dare I remind everyone that California is run by Liberals? LMAO!
