We should have built it decades ago—Next will come a huge population of Chinese workers to build it and oversee it—They will come north and enter the USA. Wait for 2 million Chinese to come accross the border—Watch as the Chinese take over Nicaragua—and push out the Latinos and replace them with Asians. The Chinese thing in long term plans-—they think 100 years in advance.

“Sedan was the first in a series of experiments designed to perfect the techniques of nuclear excavation. The Sedan explosion occurred 635-feet below ground. The desert floor formed a dome 290-feet, moving 12-million tons of rock and leaving behind a crater 1,200-feet across and 320-feet deep.”
