I want you to think of what it would take to put a concrete tunnel through a peat bog that would survive an earthquake. They don't care if they build this POS or not, any more than they do the bullet train. All they're doing is priming the pump and dump stock gambit, using union pensions to amplify the swings and then hold the bag. Taxpayers pick up that bag when they're done bleeding the system dry.
Buy Richard Trainor's book and read it.
Well OK then...
