Californians Vote Yes On Prop 1A! (Thank You for voting yes!)

[Aobasakura]

I cannot believe Americans afford to spent three hours for only an hour fright, on the way to and from airports. When very smelly stranger sit next to you, you can ask conductors to chiange your seat.The seats and atmosphere of Shinkansen are far more comfortable than those of economy class.

[yangj08]

YES. It is unfortunate that so many Americans are ignorant of the benefits of fast rail travel simply because they haven't used it before.

Southwest Airlines will get you to LAS VEGAS AND SAN FRANCISCO in 1 HOUR for $39 Bucks

You don't want to sit in a train next to some smelly stranger for 3 HOURS do you?

[xKrayZee]

JimmyJackJohnnyJose, I can see you are spamming in any video with "Prop 1A". I have settled my argument on the "Proposition 1A - California - November 4, 2008" video.

Too Late, Nevada is getting their high speed rail calls the Desert Xpress and it starts early of 2010 and it will travel from Victorvill C.A. to Las Vegas N.V traveling 150 MPH.

[sideslide23]

Southwest airlines is even worse, because last time I flew Southwest, I wen't from Phoenix to Salt Lake City and the plane is very crouded, and I had to sit right next to the old stinky smelly black man, the high speed trains interrior are bigger than the boeing 737.

[jgstargazer]

Even if Scotty could beam me from LA to SF, it's somthing we can't afford, we're broke!

[bonsaibrian]

wow finally!!!! Everyone was talking bout prop. 8 and all the others, but this was the most important thing on the ballot!!! Thank God it passed and mother nature is happy too! I used to live in Japan. Sickest thing ever the bullet train was. Can't wait the ten years!!!! Give me a hammer and put me to work for free!!!! HIGH SPEED RAIL!!! Can't believe all the idots who didnt vote for it. It passed though!!!!!

[WaffleandBanana]

Thank god my fucking ass, now our taxes are raised up, really were idiots for voting against raising our taxes they had a prop like this years ago except IT DIDN'T RAISE OUR FUCKING TAXES AND I VOTED YES ON IT AND IT DIDN'T PASS. NOW BECAUSE OF BULL PEOPLE ARE VOTING YES ON THIS ONE WHICH RAISED OUR TAXES.

[yangj08]

So how would YOU fund it? Sell off the operating contract to another company? Perhaps Japan Rail? Actually, that does sound like a better idea than letting Amtrak handle it.

[TrainMan7070]

I live in Florida, but hope to someday ride it.

Florida tried to build something like this but our retarded governor at the time (Jeb Bush) basically stopped it from happening.

[nephrenmalinari]

Awesome. Now I don't have to move out of my city to attend a UC. And Fresno State isn't my only option anymore!

[movies1239]

WOOT! FUCK YEAH! I VOTED FOR IT! I HELPED MAKE A CHANGE! AND I'm still young too! 18yrs FTW!!!! WOOOH! I'm gonna be the first one on it!!! :)

[c2thew]

whoever made this video deserves major props. that's some pretty impressive rendering and storytelling.

the issue is, do we have enough to pay for it? california's deficit is already too large. the high interest bonds we are fronting for this will cost the future billions in taxes. if californians are willing to pay $20 one way, i suppose this might just work.

[aliishaq11]

This song is the bomb.

[tiedyedpunk]

Yeah the song is awesome. It sounds a lot like Ronald Jenkees. If you don't know who he is check out his vids. Do yourself a favor and watch his other vids before you watch his music ones. It's like who is this gomer? Then BAM omg a savant!.....

[rottencat240]

I would love for this to happen! it would save money and reduce pollution quite a bit.

[mugshotesp]

Im not a Californian but I would consider going to UC if this was built.

[colesantiago]

YES!!! High speed rail for California, all the way! SUPERB WORK!!

[MattInTheHat56]

As a fellow Californian, and a train-lover, I would vote on this if only I was age. :( Great video Kevin!
