No let ME be CEO now!
The roadsides are littered with the wrecks of failed businesses crafted by charlatans and snake-oil salesmen who think they should have been the CEO, left to enact their master plan, failed, and never heard from again. Unless you are John McAfee. It is the way of things. If these guys are not just a bunch of idiots posing for work-selfies, then in three years time we'll have seen their "good work." Perhaps they need to enlist Senior Know-it-all in charge; Professor Doctor Donald J. Trump Esq PHD MBA KKK OMG WTF? THEN they will get some traction on the tracks! Or zero friction, what is their deal anyway?

Whilst I may not be totally in tune with this I do have to admit that it is a good job that Mr Busk has all of the Dollar in place as well as the ear of the Yump in order to get the job done. Fuck forbid some idiot might come up with some ideas about stuff and not wish to be an employee. Anyway... why do Lardyarse Americans wish to transport themselves at high speed from one side of the country to the other whilst missing out the middle bit. I thought they invented the interwank for that sort of thing?

Who says we do except those are trying to build it? I'm one who'd prefer to look out a window see the scenery be it car, train, or airplane. (Though TSA and the lines don't make flying worth it anymore, nor do the airlines with their cattle planes.)
Then again, there are those to whom the scenery wouldn't matter nor the hassles with TSA. Even riding in a car, they stick their noses into their electronic equipment and ignore everything anyway. So maybe there is a market.

This is the Pied Piper troughfeeders using Jack in the Beanstalk scams on Chicken Little idiots....
