Info on the Trans Texas Corridor?

Question

Does anyone know where I can find more info on Perry's Trans Texas corridor? I've heard mixed reactions. I've heard it would be great for commerce from some and others that it will be great for drug trafficking. I've only found a couple of sites so far.

Answer 2

By tradition and culture most Americans are scared of powerful governments. There is no way US citizens will willingly let a Canadian or Mexican have any direct input on their lives. The US government can barely regulate assault weapons and impose taxes, much less force americans to use pesos and learn french. On the other hand we do have a trading bloc with Canada and Mexico that was formed by NAFTA. The basis of the European Union is the European coal and steel community, a trading bloc itself. Out of this trading bloc came the EU, but I think this is as far as the US will go. In addition to fears of big government, Europe differs in its size and history, most Europeans are amazed that they can drive for 8 hours and still be in the same state in the US, Cali and Texas for an example. Open borders and close ties are more needed in a continent like Europe than in North America. Europeans have a history of killing each other in bloody conflicts and some think by building close ties it will help stop wars in the future. If you actually talk to some Europeans though, they will tell that the EU is garbage and that it only benefits Germany and France. So in summation there isn't a North American Union because we don't want one and don't need one.

Visit the offical site: http://www.keeptexasmoving.org. There, you will find videos explaining the need to keep traffic moving efficiently, maintain Texas' economic viability and competitiveness, and how to best alleviate the growing traffic issues on I-35. It will also show you ways to interact in forums (public meeting times, comments and suggestions page, etc.) You can also find the official study in PDF format explaining the purpose, intent, and oveall plan of the proposed TTC network. Texas is growing by leaps and bounds, and in order to improve and become an even greater state with an even better quality of life, the TTC is imperative to, frankly, ensure our job security in the future.
