It's a shame we lack the political will to get these sort of things done :(

The bigger shame is the cost of projects in NYC means no station in Union City and/or a stop with transfer to the light rail.

If costs in NYC matched anywhere else in the world then for the same price (or less) the Gateway tunnels could be built with one or 2 stops in NJ before the Hudson.
