It is never meant to function. It is just meant to funnel dollars to the ChiComs.

Isn’t Mr. Musk politically a hyper leftist like most of the other enterprise/digital geniuses?

If Musk can stop this INSANE Bullet Train, having to deal with all his hype would have been worth it. If the end result is that 2% of the cost of the bullet train is instead used to add a lane to I-5 each way in the Central Valley, he’ll be a HERO to me.

If Hyperloop carries passengers it will be so sensitive to damage by terrorists, or even dolts, that the U.S. Gestapo will have to confiscate all constitutional rights of people living within a 100 miles area of the tubes, in order for the company to make a profit at taxpayers’ expense.

Did Elon Musk just make California’s $64 billion bullet train obsolete before it’s even built?

No; these guys did.

No - Southwest Airlines did it long ago.

The cost is already over $100 billion with $1 billion going to Sen. Diane Feinstein (D) Her husband “won” a contract for supplying railroad ties even though he has never been involved with a project like this.
