I could live in Montana and work in Scotland.
We could combat drought by channeling rivers through a Tele porter. We could alleviate floods the same way.

Be careful what you ask for...imagine Somali's transported to your neighborhood, or mine.
Indeed. Imagine what a muslim could do with a transporter and an IED.
