Please show me anything that stated that high speed rail would even be self sustainable.

Of course, you'll have to click on through and read the in-depth projections and financial pages of course.

But you have already made up your mind. Your governor agrees. Other governors and states disagree.

So you just need to stand by for 10 years or so, at the ready to hop in and say, "I told you so!" if the project fails

Do you know that the "L" in chicago which is highly used is not self sustainable?
LOL - that's about as logical an argument as saying that because the Edsel failed as a car, the current model that Ford is working on for 2013 won't make a profit, either.
