What's the total nice degree that we spent, roughly, so far? $120,000,000,000. That's what you make charts, right? We have spent $120 billion so far on high speed rail. Not a single mile, not a single foot of rail has actually been laid down. And this thing is planned to come right through Santa Clarita Valley, through the Antelope Valley, through the 14 corridor, and then through, basically our district, right through the heart of the merchant district. (05:46–05:52)
