Tim Pawlenty & his PRT Pod Boondoggle
Personal Rapid Transit has been around for years, but it remains an imaginary, infeasible concept…. a classic boondoggle. Learn more about this most recent of Tim Pawlenty’s really bad ideas here: tinyurl.com
Light rail is the boondoggle. Is light rail profitable? No. Does light rail take you to everywhere you need to go? No. Is there always a train waiting for you when you arrive at the station? No. Do the light rail companies pay for construction of their tax subsidized boondoggle? No. PRT is profitable, takes you where you want to go, the systems in existence have perfect safety record (unlike light rail), and the PRT taxis wait for you -not the other way around, uses no oil. PRT is the answer.
