Oahu should raise its own money for rail

This is the way to help pay for the rail! Take benefits from TAT and other means. Cripple others rather than themselves. Wanna pay for the rail? Raise your gas price $1 per gallon on Oahu. You have the cheapest price, Maui County has the highest. Let your Realtors get more taxes on Oahu when then they make a sale.

There are a lot of ways. All the malls you have, make them pay higher taxes too. Why not? There is a lot you could have done for the island of Oahu with the rail money. But it is certain that not all the other island taxpayers agree on how they are being left out of their fair share.
