Louisiana to seek "wasteful spending" for NOLA-BR high-speed rail

a train that connects the CBD, BR, and the Northshore would be absolutely amazing! Can you imagine football season and the first train to BR? How about the first train to NOLA on sundays? People could live in BR and work in NOLA and vice versa. Not only that, but I would bet you would see tons of development between NOLA and BR. This is a no brainer, so I sure it will fail...
