The rail project has no trusted messenger.  There is no source that can be trusted.  The city, HART and the city council have not not been transparent about the project.  From the beginning, when Mayor Hannemann started spending the rail GET tax, he was not required to report to anyone. There is no accounting for the rail money the city spent before HART was created.  Once HART was created, they reported to no one.   The HART online communications - their website and social media are intentionally misleading and dishonest - and there is no authority to tell them to stop.  The comment that stopping at Middle St. will cut ridership by 60% is also baseless.  Now our elected representatives have this unfounded belief that the project must be finished.  There is no justification for rail that would indicate the taxpayers on Oahu must come up with over six billion dollars to finish this project.  Just stop the funding.  Let rail play out.  Sixteen miles and thirteen stations are enough.
