Dear Editor
Our City, County, State and Federal Government are broke............BROKE..........and no elected official from the local level to the federal seems to have the nerve to call for increased taxes yet they continue spending.

When you are broke you do not spend billions of dollars on a tunnel that will not even accommodate the number of vehicles that use the present viaduct.

It has no off ramp to downtown among other stupid things. The viaduct can be retro-fitted according to all reports. At present the only ones I see benefiting from this tunnel are the property owners downtown and enhancing the value of their property is not at the top of my list of priorities.
