RE: Herrington writes that taxpayers paying for LB improvements is "bad"

I love the "transit plan" suggestion that it perpetuates growth. Nashville seems to sure be booming without a mass transit plan previously in place... waste $9 billion on a transit plan - the government always knows how to spend that much money in the best way possible (kidding). Then complain about $2.5M for an upgrade in the LB which generates revenue due to its one main tenant, for the city, and even though the LB operates "at a loss" just think about the albatross it would become if it did not make those same improvements (I like the Legion Field reference). Guess Tiger Lane was a waste of taxpayer money as well. Glad he is in journalism and not business.
Nashville WILL suffer if they don't get a real transit plan going.
We are a decade away from self-driving cars. They will kill lite rail. Lite rail cannot compete with thousands of smart cars driving cooperatively. Those right of ways could be used to run the cars, but building rail at this point is just short-sighted.
