We are going to need these kinds of large scale improvements, especially when countries like China and India pour tens of millions of tourists into the United States each year.

No, that's the people-mover system that would connect to the Green Line further east. It seems like Metro should try to get the Harbor Subdivision done before the LAX Green Line Extension since it would be direct, quick service to downtown. Going from Union Station using Metro rail, you'd first have to use the Red Line, then the Blue line, and then the Green Line, all which would take a very long time. The Harbor Subdivision would allow for a direct connection from Union Station to LAX that would not only take about half the time to ride, but to build since the tracks and righ-of-way are already there. It just makes more sense than the Green Line.
