LOL. I know some guys that work on it. They've told me that they are having to replace sections due to the fact that they only half finished parts. The waste is stupid. Anyone with any construction experience (like me) and from the area could have warned them about many of this challenges they've had.

It was always politics. It was a vote getting scheme. Huberis of Jerry Brown. Gov Moon Beam.

Its so bad the current officials aren't even trying to cover the nonsense. Just pretending they can right the ship. They can't. It's just moving goal posts. Classic sunk cost fallacy.
