New regs for Florida Brightline?
Author: Korigaoka1811

And I thought the GOP (post-Theodore Roosevelt) was opposed to business regulations.

The GOP also used to be against busting the national debt and for supporting local control...

Looks pretty simple to me: catering to "constituents" for votes. The emphasis in the article for crossing "safety" and trespassing are the obvious clues.

Obviously, neither party cares about providing transportation, just getting money and votes, by making promises. I don't know why people take passenger rail in the U.S. so seriously.
