Question Why, $114 Billion on HS Rail

Folks, the odest political ploy known. Distract the masses from the incompetence of the past six years and the massive debt incurred by proposing a "pipe dream" such as the High Speed Train at $114 Billion. Given the way this mob cooks the books the cost by completion could be anything. One sure bet is that any estimates put forward by Albanese would be even more rubbery than Swans Budget estimates.

It won't happen, certainly not in the lifespan of most of us.
