Seeing that a damn is about to bust open, flooding various communities in California because of government cut backs and neglect, should the Federal government give California money for their fabulous new rail system?

High speed rail seems like a good idea for an infrastructure project given the medium distances between west coast cities (too far for conventional rail but not so far that flying is absolutely necessary). Of course, if the project was mismanaged or misrepresented, that's another story.
The general idea of punishing a state because it votes for the wrong candidate that underlies your and Breitbart's facially neutral statements, is reprehensible. We're still one country. The people of California would rush to help the people of Mississippi if they were in danger and vice versa.

New Orleans is another prime example of the point I'm trying to make. They still don't have a damn to withstand another hurricane that destroyed the city not too log ago.
Shouldn't money go toward known infrastructure that needs attention before it goes to new projects?

Gas lighting? We are talking about 200,000 displaced citizens all because the state can't maintain it's infrastructure. In places like New Orleans, the situation is far more dire.

Yes. A crying need for responsible government action.
Should the Feds give California money for rail system?
