fact they're saying that the writer should be going to go on like i don't even know what the model was but you don't jump on the projections but yet you jump on mad max for trying to base it on his experience that the federal government never gets anything done on time for budget what do you what do you mean by that you want me to get on their projections that's just a projection fifty six hundred at some numbers some are statistician going to have that many more writers were those writers coming through i agree with you i agree that they're both just projections i never said there wasn't what are you talking about where you kind of jumped on me little bit harsher you never did anything  while i mean we could talk about various roles of the media and so forth that he and i are having a discussion and i'm on the other side of it i already told you i thought the train was a good idea so i'm arguing against him what is it you trying to part of the issues themselves but to say why didn't i jump on visclosky first of all i told you i already agree with them second of all i let plenty of people jam it down his throat i don't know if i you know if i  he went through the different studies that came to those and that the study is on the website and i'll take criticism when it's due but here's the deal there's nowhere in america we can do what we're doing here right now on a local basis this is free is the speech gets my friend and people they hit viscosity hard the other day and he took it right to his face i didn't need to i got plenty of people like you and  and i appreciate it thanks a lot ok this is a hugely emotional issue gladys you know one thing i don't hear anybody discussing and i think it's a different dynamic which is what about the fact that having the train in the access to chicago is potential to keep younger higher educated individuals from leaving the region and taking up residence when they're younger and starting their families here and so forth as opposed to coming back later in life i think we heard earlier whether it was  or one of the local politicians talked about in the last was the thirty years we've had a nine percent drop in population was that correct to my nine percent drop in population here and so why should we have a drop in population you know based upon our proximity to a major metropolitan area like chicago with all that it has to offer we need to do what we need to do to continue the growth in this area positive growth and they're talking all those trains in gary and him in those locations where you go to south county and people that have come back with a four year degree or an advanced degree and they want to live in lake county now because of their access to chicago isn't that going to be a huge benefit for the areas where you know my grill is mentioned that that effort now one person's ever brought that up well i mean you're basically talking about having a long term vision for what lake county should be and ten twenty thirty years and there are a lot of people that are are mired in the costs of you know fixing potholes right now and those are real needs but i don't know if it's necessarily a tradeoff between train or fixing a pothole on or street i mean it's not hopefully would have both hopefully hopefully we can manage ourselves good enough so you have both and you know at some point i get a little tired of talking about this so let's take one more he's been waiting and he is fired up and that's m x m x how are your body how you doing i give you a fact that he said no new taxes the first thing that come to my mind was inflation and he let me talk to him i said pete the project's going to take nine years and within that nine years inflation is going to come and he said no no no it won't and you know what i kind of disagree with that i think he'll come back and ask for more and you put in a dent into your taxes and you lake county income tax will rise so you know i've got the utmost respect for senator pete because he what he done for the steelworkers and i supported him every part of the way i've protested with him and it's a shame that i've got to protest against him put a car
