FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

folks i'm literally about to lose my

0:01

mind me kevin here california

0:03

is going to be spending 3 000

0:06

bitcoin per mile

0:10

for a train just so you know that works

0:13

out to

0:15

million dollars per mile for gavin

0:18

newsom

0:19

stupid high-speed railway folks i'm

0:21

going to give you an

0:22

alternate in this video listen to this

0:25

voters in 2008 in california approved

0:28

10 billion dollars of spending for 500

0:31

miles

0:32

for a high-speed train today

0:35

this high-speed train is expected to

0:37

cost 100

0:40

billion dollars that's 10x the original

0:42

expectation we'll get a few hundred more

0:44

miles we'll get 800 miles but if you

0:46

divide

0:47

a hundred billion by 800 miles you get

0:50

125 million dollars of cost

0:52

per mile which is the equivalent of

0:54

about 3 000 bitcoin at the time of this

0:56

recording which is absolutely

0:58

mind-blowing

0:58

because guess what elon musk tells us

1:01

that the boring company

1:02

could drill and have functional and

1:05

operating tunnels

1:07

under our cities under our streets under

1:10

our highways

1:10

for the cost of 10 million dollars per

1:13

mile

1:14

that means you could literally have 12.5

1:16

miles of tunnel

1:17

for every one mile of train you get to

1:20

make this make a little bit more sense

1:22

consider this for the same price

1:25

that california and gavin newsom are

1:27

wasting on a bullet train

1:29

you could build 12 tunnels

1:33

so literally like that's one tunnel

1:36

that's two tunnels 12 tunnels from the

1:40

border of mexico on the wall

1:42

to the border of oregon

1:45

12 times for the same cost of a

1:48

high-speed rail

1:50

that won't even stretch from the bottom

1:52

to the top of california all the way

1:54

we can do that with tunnels 12 times

1:56

over for the same cost

1:58

this is a ludicrous expense but not only

2:00

is it ludicrous think about it this way

2:02

let's give you another analogy here

2:04

let's say we wanted to build

2:05

tunnels under every single interstate

2:09

in california we would literally be able

2:11

to build

2:12

a two-lane tunnel system under every

2:15

single highway that exists in california

2:17

with the amount of money that they are

2:18

spending on this high-speed bullet train

2:21

gavin newsom knows how to waste money he

2:23

just proposed increasing the budget by

2:25

four billion dollars

2:26

for the high-speed rail when instead we

2:29

should be using

2:29

tunnels consider this the tunnel is

2:32

going to alleviate traffic on let's say

2:34

the 405 between a highly congested

2:36

area like the 101 and the 10. folks

2:39

that's only

2:40

12 miles of distance you could spend 120

2:44

million dollars so a fraction of the 100

2:47

billion dollars gavin newsom wants to

2:49

spend to alleviate

2:51

hot spot areas with multiple tunnels and

2:54

you no longer have traffic and

2:55

congestion

2:56

but see logic doesn't work in california

2:59

politics and this is exactly why

3:01

you got to go to meet and support meet

3:04

kevin

3:05

paff rats my campaign for governor

3:07

because this is

3:08

ridiculous but it gets worse

3:11

california's government says hey but

3:13

come on we're giving

3:15

5 000 jobs we've already spent 267

3:19

million dollars on salaries for this

3:21

high-speed rail

3:22

and we're creating five thousand jobs so

3:24

we might be spending all your taxpayer

3:26

money

3:26

and wasting it but at least we're

3:28

creating five thousand jobs

3:30

the problem is if you literally take

3:33

their math

3:34

and you divide the five years they spend

3:36

on this project

3:38

and 40 years and you divide that into

3:40

267 million dollars

3:42

you get an average pay for a full-time

3:44

worker working 46 weeks

3:46

40 hours per week eight hours a day

3:49

you get an average pay for these five

3:51

thousand workers

3:52

of six dollars an hour those are the

3:55

five thousand jobs california is

3:56

creating now obviously they're not

3:58

lumping them all together like that it's

3:59

because the way they're counting 5 000

4:01

jobs

4:02

is by saying oh well that guy worked on

4:03

the job for at least one day in the last

4:05

five years so i guess that

4:06

temporary worker or that tryout works

4:08

yeah 5 000 jumps

4:10

folks the politicians are lying to us

4:12

through their teeth

4:14

they're the least transparent thing we

4:15

have right now and it's

4:17

all gavin newsom's fault it's not cat

4:20

it's not the people of calais for

4:21

california's fault it's not the workers

4:23

fault it's not even

4:25

congress's fault it's leaders like gavin

4:28

newsom who are screwing california

4:29

folks this is why you got to vote yes on

4:31

recall and support

4:33

meet kevin paffreth for governor but

4:35

folks think about this

4:37

a bullet train is not what we need we

4:40

need something that's actually going to

4:42

solve traffic where we have traffic

4:44

gavin newsom is spending over 3 000

4:47

bitcoin

4:48

per mile of a train it's going to be

4:50

going through areas

4:51

that don't even have traffic that's the

4:54

problem

4:55

if we just focus the tunnel spending in

4:57

areas we have traffic

4:59

we alleviate traffic and we can probably

5:01

build

5:02

10 to 20 tunnels under the most

5:04

congested parts of california

5:06

all throughout california and instantly

5:09

eradicate

5:10

traffic throughout the entire state now

5:12

i know some people like to make the

5:13

counter argument which is reason well

5:14

that hey well if we build another lane

5:16

of the highway it's just going to get

5:17

filled up with more traffic

5:18

may be true if you add one lane but what

5:20

if you add 12 in highly congested areas

5:23

or what if we have variable toll rates

5:26

for the tunnels that we do build

5:27

if you want to use the tunnel you have

5:29

the option of using the tunnel or going

5:30

on the highway system

5:32

all of a sudden maybe we have a little

5:33

less discretionary traffic going through

5:35

the tunnels

5:36

and we really are just focusing on

5:38

offloading

5:39

peak congestion which california is the

5:41

butt of the world's

5:43

joke when it comes to congestion tunnels

5:46

solves the problem guess what else

5:48

tunnels are good for earthquakes

5:50

think about how things operate under the

5:53

ocean

5:53

when there are waves things are pretty

5:55

calm become under waves

5:57

you're sitting on the waves or worst

5:59

case scenario you're a bridge and you're

6:01

really riding that wave like a surfboard

6:03

that's where you get peak volatility

6:05

so what's actually more exposed to

6:07

damage in an earthquake

6:09

a train or a tunnel hands down a train

6:12

gets destroyed

6:13

whereas tunnels stay protected and move

6:15

with the ground

6:16

folks a high speed rail is a disaster

6:19

when you look at the numbers

6:20

this is a gavin newsom pet project

6:23

wasting taxpayer money and it's another

6:25

reason why

6:26

california wants to raise your taxes now

6:29

reduce them

6:30

like i do go to meetkevin.com for

6:32

governor support the cause
