There is never enough money for California projects.  A Northern California town is "building" a 1/2 mile long walking trail with a pedestrian bridge over a creek along an existing flat railroad line.  The estimated cost is $21 million and it is expected to take 5 years to complete.  The LAX people mover to get traffic away from the airport is now 3 years past the scheduled completion date and has cost $3,3 billion so far for the 2.25 mile track.  In simple math that is $285,000 per lineal foot.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.
