Well let's see now, Caldwell promised in his last campaign that he'll "do rail right....on time and on budget". But rail costs have grown from $5.2 billion to $10 billion and counting, upwards. Rail was promised, when proposed, that NO PROPERTY TAXES would be used for rail, yet Caldwell is threatening to use/raise property taxes for rail. The editorial states that rail will alleviate traffic, yet it has been stated previously that rail will NOT improve the traffic congestion. The original sunset of the rail surcharge tax has been extended by FIVE years, though at that time Caldwell wanted it to be permanent. Now the state legislature is in cahoots with Caldwell to extend the tax another TWO years, though Caldwell wanted even more. But what does Caldwell care? He gets to double-dip his income with his mayoral pay AND the Territorial Savings Bank director's pay. Meanwhile the rest of us get to suck rocks.
