Californians For High Speed Rail
Killing the HSR project by deciding not to move forward this year will not only necessitate construction of pollution-increasing highway and airport expansions, it will dramatically alter how HSR will be built in the future in California. Since HSR will have to happen regardless if we move forward now or not, due to population growth and environmental realities, I thought it might be useful to consider how a delay in developing a HSR system will change the nature of HSR permanently in California.
I am a Veteran with 10 years of prior Federal Service. I have worked for the Department of Defense and Department of the Treasury.
On April 5th, I filed my Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission as the 1st Republican Presidential Candidate from the State of Florida. I was born and raised in the State of California. High-Speed Rail is an industry whose time has come. Both States have much to lose if we don’t seize this historical moment and move ahead with our national plan.
As every Californian knows, good things don’t just come to those who wait. If you want High-Speed Rail, you need to get out and vote on November 6th. Sit-ins won’t win the game, and staying home will only let the Tea Party — which is supported by Big Oil — win, by default.
Our multinational corporations have parked $1.43 trillion of tax-deferred profits in foreign bank accounts. These profits are tax-deferred, not tax-exempt.
As President, I’ll urge Congress to grant an exemption of $1.00 for every dollar invested in High-Speed Rail. With this incentive, we’ll have more than enough funding to complete our nationwide system, and the major connections can be completed by the end of next year.
We can do all of this without raising taxes!
If you don’t want High-Speed Rail in 2012, I am not your candidate. If you do, go to my web portal now and register your support by clicking on the “Support” link with my photo at the bottom of the page.
A vote for Magee is a vote for High-Speed Rail. If elected, I can promise you this: The Railroad is coming to town, with more jobs than you can imagine, for this generation and generations to come! I’ll support connections between every metropolitan area, nationwide, with the major connections to be completed by the end of my 1st year in office.
I have not accepted, and will not accept, contributions from the Oil lobbies, or any special interest group. My only commitment is to: “We the People of the United States of America”!
Sincerely,
Erin Kent Magee
1st Republican Presidential Candidate from the State of Florida
