The US really needs to start spending on their infrastructure like the New Deal. It boggles my mind why they don't have highspeed rail connecting the east and west coast. or do they?!?

It's finally time to retire the airplane. Don't worry about the hippies; they rather have this over a oil line that is prone to leaks and airplanes that use it.

It would be cool n all..but I'd imagine it would cost like 4 times the price of an airline ticket.

Posted via RS Mobile | The oods should probably be equivalent to an airplane crash.
A high-speed capsule going 4000mph and a Boeing 747 going 500mph will kill you all the same.

document makes it sound simple and cost effective... now they just need to get the people at the govemrnment level to accept it and fund it.... don't think that's going to happen any time soon since there are billions of dollars at stake and the people who stand to benefit from the old school railway construction will surely oppose this new development.

they just need all the billionaires in the world to ship in a small % of their money and they have 10billion to fund it.
10billion doesn't seem like that much, a lot of people could fully fund that themselves.

They are proposing a top speed of 700mph. Not sure where you got 4000mph from
