Letters: Trolley dollars

Re “Trolley gets a green light,” Nov. 7

Trolleys were a great civic improvement in the early 1900s when they helped get tons of horse droppings off the streets.

It is 2012 and the horses are long gone, but Anaheim is considering building a trolley line, which will make traffic worse and cost $318 million for 3.2 miles.That’s about $100 million a mile. I guess it seems reasonable compared with California’s high-speed rail project.

Hasn’t anyone noticed that California is broke and broken?
