Well, if that's the case, why are we considering spending billions on a rail system when asking 10,000 to move closer to their work places makes more sense?

How about the majority of the state's population thinks it is a good idea and free staters go back to their cabin in the woods and go away

Billions? Also because it helps every citizen of NH? Anyone who would like to commute via rail to downtown boston instead of wasting time, gas, parking, etc on driving in?

I’m sorry if all you do is sit at home and play with yourself but the rest of society has shit to do.

It's a nice paradox. People move here because the higher density cities they work in aren't good to live in. But then they want the same services here so that our cities can grow to become the same thing they left because it was unlivable. It's really twisted.

Or just want to have a train to a major city like every other civilized nation on earth.

It's California cancer.

They can no longer afford to live in the state they voted into the ground, they flee to somewhere (usually fiscally conservative) and vote for the same shit that ruined state one. Repeat. I mean fuck, I got an Instagram reel of 3 female roommates laying $6,000 a month for a 3 bedroom house. Imagine paying $2,000 a month to have two fucking roommates still and thinking "yep, I'm of sound mind to make economic decisions for everyone else."

The funny thing is that some of them will inevitably figure it out over time and become the same people they see today as obstructionists. The cycle of life.
