Texas could get a 205-mph bullet train zipping between Houston and Dallas::The proposed electric railway line could travel 240 miles in under 90 minutes for over 6 million passengers per year.

      This. We’d have a high speed rail going between San Diego and Seattle by now if Mush hadn’t gotten everyone exploring hyperloop (a concept we’ve known to be terrible for over a century now).

          And at this point, who is going to listen to anything he says and think that they’d want him having any kind of control over something he talks about even if it does sound like a good idea?

        I love how people listened to Elon when he doesn’t even have an engineering degree. Proof that the media can spin anyone into a celebrity “genius.”

        God the memes of Elon hate are reaching unbearable proportions. Where was any work about to be done before Elon put a stop to it?

        You’ll need to a get a new hobby that isn’t meming musk.
