Elon Musk’s Boring Company approved to build high-speed transit

in #discussion6 years ago


between downtown Chicago and O’Hare Airport

I read about this the other month. I may have made a post then.

The deal is that The Boring Company drills two tunnels from the AirPort to downtown. People are transported from one place to the other 'rillly fast'., much faster than a bicycle. If you've ever been in Chicago rush hour traffic you know that a bicycle qualifies as FAST. Especially around O'hare.

Oh yeah...and the best part?

  • The project will be funded entirely by the company with no taxpayer subsidy.

The anti-americans hate that. They WANT to accuse him of being a 'subsidy baby'. When he spends his own money to do stuff..that confuses the hell out of them. I don't see what that should make them mad. Confusion is their normal mental state. But it does.

Oh wait....HATE is also a normal mental state too them too.

That explains it.

When he get's it done, like he did with that battery thing in Oz..they're gonna hate him even more.
Perhaps as much as the anti-american left hates Trump.

Sort:  

faster than a bicycle? I had heard of the hyper loop project but this should be way faster 😔 @peekbit

This will be the start of how transportation will be for humans in the future when above earth is NO longer the preferred method.

yup..when the major means of transportation is underground.
the weather doesn't matter.

TBH...

I hope I am NOT around...

Keep STEEM N ON,

Being 'not around' is easy.
do you want your next of kin to be notified?
it'd be polite to choose a 'less messy' means of exit.
someone has to clean it up.
be considerate.

Lol!

Hopefully back in the ocean...

Surfs Up!

;)

it always is somewhere.
travel from one surf spot to the other.
globally.
in supersonic hyperloops.

I will catch a 15 foot wave or be caught by the BIGGEST wave and go out POINT BREAK!

That way I don't have to worry about living the rest of my life underground.

If Musk can bring himself as a CEO back from the future where money and value have no meaning, I'll be a fan and investor. 15 years of Tesla being a black hole for private and tax payer money does not make me a fan. Imagining and researching future technology is important, but selling the people on running a marathon when you don't know how to crawl is a little disingenuous. I love the idea of solar power but I didn't buy solar panels back in the nineties. Elon must find a way to make the steps to the future profitable for his investors. Also note that you can't invest in his best ideas like Space X or Hyperloop. He was made rich by the investors in the loser company Tesla but they have no claim to the profits( if any) of his futuristic technology endeavors. Hope he changes my mind, but not a fan of Elon Musk right now.

he was made rich by PayPal.
you got your facts wrong.
I'm sure he can bear up under the horrible disappointment of you not liking him.

I stand corrected. I had forgotten about PayPal.

yup...he used his personal fortune.
and leveraged government subsidies
(which they were falling all over themselves to give him)
first for Telsa...then his other projects.

How boring.

Sounds good, how much did the city charge him for using the transit station on block 37?
