~~Working-class folks need rail transit
I agree 100 percent with Paulette Kaleikini that the rail should have to show due diligence in respect to Hawaiian archaeological sites and traditions (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.staradvertiser.com/newspremium/20120825_rail_foes_win_big.html" style="color: #0000FF;" span="">"Rail foes win big," Star-Advertiser, Aug. 25</a>). I find it a gross barometer of the decline of humanity that there are so many stickers and signs opposing rail in wealthy areas on Oahu. Are we that vacuous and shallow that if we personally won't ride the rail, then by default our community does not need it?
