Elon's a fucking idiot. The USA could of had this too if he did get the project scraped just to build a shitty underground tunnel that doesn't work

Yeah, idk the actual pricing but I assume it would be cheaper to just take over night train than maglev(more comfortable too?). The construction of the tracks too I'd assume.
