Kern COG Poll
What's your opinion of California's planned high-speed rail system?
L.A. to San Francisco in 3 hours? That's the best thing ever!
Yeah, right. I'll believe it when I see it.
Should reduce congestion and air pollution.
You wait. That $10 billion bond is just the beginning of its costs.
It will create a lot of jobs, and it's safer than air travel.
Nobody's going to use it.
