Progress can be cold blooded at times. Sure there will be jobs lost or at least displaced. But where was the outcry about feeding families when the hundreds of toll takers across the area were out on the street when cashless tolls were instituted?
On the flip side, A rail tunnel would be a long term job maker for hundreds of construction workers, sandhogs etc. Not to mention the rail crews needed to run the trains.
Grease the palms is nothing new with construction projects in the NYC metro area. Thats what got the 3d Ave El torn down without a single spade being turned for a 2nd Ave subway that was supposed to replace it.
But aside from that, back to reality. I must agree with you that the tunnel will never be built, at least not even in our grandkids lifetime.
