Purple Line? No thanks.

Maryland focused on cutting cost of Purple Line, rather than killing it - The Washington Post

Given the "monumental debacle" (as Montgomery County councilman Phil Andrews aptly put it) Silver Spring Transit Center, why should the public (local, state and federal--from "sea to shining sea"--taxpayers) contribute to another MD public-private partnership? So that local politicians can non-competitively select another private builder, engineer and inspector, and end up with another severely flawed, over budget, overdue, lemon? No thanks.
