SACRAMENTO across the country,the era of ambitions public works projects seems to be over.Governments are shelving or rejecting plans for highways,rail roads and big buildings under the weight of collapsing revenues and voters resistance.
But not california.
With a brashness and ambition that evoke a california of a generation ago,state leaders starting with gov.
jerry brown have railled around a plan to build a 520 mile high speed rail line from los angelese to san francisco,cutting the trip from a six hour drive to a train ride of two hour and 38 minutes.And they are doing it in the face of what might seem like insurmountable political fiscales.
