I think what you are missing is this line in the article regarding the monorail: “It’s an autonomously operated multi-car train that shifts a few hundred people every six minutes on both north and southbound tracks.”

The lvcva paid for the current tunnels at a cost of $58 million funded by room taxes in vegas. The cost mile of Vegas loop compared to the existing light rail in vegas is more ethan double on a 15 year scale and more than quadroples on 30 year scale.

Doyou swallow,

I can’t tell if this is satire or not.

Donald Trump was not elected the editor of Jalopnik. I hope this helps. 

i ain’t reading all that
i’m happy for u tho
or sorry that happened

What’s hilarious is wire-guide tech has been around for decades. All they needed to do was embed a guide wire in the floor of the tunnel and modify the car a bit to read it. It’s been used in warehouses with forklifts.  Even consumers can purchase it for moving scale model cars on a layout.  The Faller car system is…

This project exists for one reason: to suck money and attention away from legitimate public transportation options. It’s a boondoggle. Muskrat has openly admitted this! Quit treating this abomination as anything more than an elaborate troll project.

Pretty sure sdfg is talking about this:

Exactly. The tunnel is proof that FSD doesn’t work.

Every time I hear Musk talk about RoboTaxi’s or cars driving themselves I just point to the tunnel. If they can’t do it there in a 100% controlled space, in the absolute 100% best case scenario, what makes anyone think they can do it on public roads.

You could have had a high speed train with a throughput of thousands of passengers per hour, travelling in comfort at 200 mph.

I should also add. The first Trump term was terrible for my company. We got screwed hard by tariffs the first time around. It was difficult and expensive for us to secure the things we needed. Lots of raw goods are made in China and India which are then finished here. Because of tariffs and scarcity input costs like…

Has control of the house, senate, and presidency:

I’m in the same boat as you.

They will just double down, somehow still manage to blame “the radical left”, and their followers will just eat it up.  :-/

now realize that they’re going to own the blame for whatever harm they do

Biden didn’t go after Musk, neither will Kamala.

Phone bills were really high 30 years ago. You paid ~$50 a month in the mid 1990s for landline phone service (about $104 in today’s dollars). 10 cents a minute was considered a good price for “long distance” (Sprint flooded the TV airwaves for these long distance plans), which was any call outside your immediate metro…
