Mr Carr,

There is no question that developers like yourself do quite well as the struggling families of Oahu are forced to pay for a rail system that runs from a developer's new land scheme, to a luxury shopping mall for wealthy tourists that runs past luxury condos built for wealthy mainlander's 4th home homes.

If you've been following this project, you would know the route was stolen from the weary commuters it was promised to and the TOD is being equally mal-purposed into more luxury condos and boutique hotels with developers like yourself offering "cash gifts" to the city to exempt yourselves from building actual affordable housing.

Meanwhile, struggling families find their clothing, food, medicine, and rent increased to subsidize the profits of developers like yourself.  Does that seem fair and right to you?
