[Grantenfuego]

It never ends.

Reynolds said that light rail is too expensive to be feasible. "We can afford it like we can four holes in the head," she said. "The whole premise of light rail is that it promotes a clean environment, and global warming has been debunked, so we don't need it. And it will impact businesses close to the highway because light rail will take up two lanes."
