It's fine for Tokuda to pontificate on this matter to please her Windward Oahu constituents.   Perhaps she and they should understand that the Leeward Oahu residents have paid taxes to help build H-2, Pali and Kalihi Tunnels so that they can breeze in and out of town.  More so, Leeward Oahu even take their trash so that they can continue to live in a "pristine" environment.  Do she and her constituents have no empathy for those who spend hours in slow moving or stalled traffic each and every day going to work and rushing home to cook and feed their children?  I'm one of those who abhor selfish and small minded thinking by our elected officials.
