The Source article really tickled me. If these senators just buckled down and did some basic research themselves there would be no need to fork out/totally waste thousands of dollars on "feasibility studies".

We need a bridge from STT to STJ and eliminate the need for ferries and barges. It would only take a few decades to build and probably only be 800% over budget.

I remember WMA spending $1MILLION on their study to charge an import tax on every item brought into the VI which created a huge public outcry and was denied by the PSC. Standing room only at that hearing.

The money that gets wasted on frivolous nonsense that should go to improving the island is mind boggling.
