Pathetic. This "editorial" from a rag with a daily circulation of just 41,792—down a staggering XX% in the last eight years, barely reaching a fraction of Fresno County's X million residents—is the best you've got? A newspaper so obscure it's practically a local newsletter, and yet that's your shield for squandering over $XXX billion in taxpayer money on a boondoggle that's ballooned from an original $XX billion estimate? Let's face facts: After XX years of delays, corruption, and incompetence, all you've managed is a pitiful 171-mile stub from Merced to Bakersfield—a "train to nowhere" connecting two Central Valley outposts that couldn't be more irrelevant. Merced, with its paltry population of 86,333, is such a blip on the map that most Californians couldn't locate it without GPS, let alone justify pouring billions into linking it to Bakersfield. The segment alone now carries a $XXXX billion budget gap, with costs revised upward to $XXXX billion just this year, and the full project teetering at over $XXX billion—yet not a single passenger has boarded, and completion is pushed to 2033 at the earliest. This isn't progress; it's fiscal malpractice on steroids, draining resources from crumbling roads (ranked 49th worst nationally), skyrocketing homelessness (187,000 on the streets, XX% of the U.S. total), and failing schools while delivering zero return. No wonder businesses flee and families suffer—your "vision" is a black hole for public funds, and hiding behind the Fresno Bee's echo chamber won't change that. Time to pull the plug, Gavin; Californians deserve accountability, not more excuses from a project that's dead on arrival.
