Wall money right there. Besides, won’t lax be under water in 12 years or something?

We need one of those at the border. We’re simply not being invaded quick enough.

$5.5 billion? Wow. With that kind of money they could build a canal system. Wait. That would be so cool. I think they should build a canal system.

There’s one of these boondoggles in Morgantown WV.
From wiki:
“Developed from the Alden staRRcar and built by a consortium led by Boeing Vertol, the driverless system was a government-funded experiment in PRT systems. Upon its opening in 1975 with three stations, it had a fitful start, being three years behind schedule and costing 3–4 times more than estimated.”

Disagree, it's no boondoggle if it gets used. The airport is so congested with vehicle traffic that it can take a half-hour or more to get to your airline once you leave the freeway. Look at the traffic at 0:22 seconds on the video on the link.
I've flown Southwest from there multiple time last year. When my scheduled allowed it, I've flown into either John Wayne or Burbank to avoid LAX.
It looks like it will operate like the Phoenix Sky Harbor people mover. A six-minute YouTube video shows that installation:

The Las Vegas Monorail cost 650 Million and is 4.4 Miles long.
Me thinks a whole lot of palms will be greased at LAX.

That’s $2.75 million per freaking job. I sincerely hope that each worker gets paid $2.75 million. But none of them will.
