Dear Editor:
Could it be that our government intends to oust UP from its
right-of-way through downtown Gilroy, supplanting it with
Soviet-style Bullet Train and Son-of-Amtrak Caltrain?

With VTA’s Ministry of Truth touting Gilroy as its newest land-use planning (i.e. Sovietized) poster child, will we see an end to the history of private-sector railroads here? How many jobs will that kill off? How much commerce will we lose if the VTA-led socialist-communist scheme is crammed down on us?
The malignant tumor of socialism-communism is being stimulated by Politico-Transit Alliance advocates in our local government, our county government and our state government, so will small business owners be able to stop this socialistic train wreck? We’ve seen the canneries go bankrupt and close their gates. The Black Hole Frankenstein “transit hub,” where empty buses stop so public-sector union drivers can rest from the tedium of transporting empty seats around town, is growing who knows where the socialist policy will stop? If we don’t stop runaway government now, how will our children or grandchildren ever stop it? Where is an elected leader with the guts to fight back for us?
