I’m going to be honest, he seems less than qualified to talk about trains:
This is a lesson that not everyone with a PhD is smart or qualified to talk about certain topics with an authority. Like that one physicist lady who said capitalism was good; or that chick from The Big Bang Theory with a PhD in neuroscience, she vehemently and violently supports Israel.
If trains were first invented today, they would never be built.
What the fuck does this even mean? That this came from a native English speaker – who presumably attended some kind of elite American school – is more than a little concerning. Greatest education system in the world right there.
No rail-less nations are building rail networks.
Is he talking about America? If so, the word he’s looking for is “brainless,” not “rail-less.”
No, China doesn’t count because they’re the Paragon of poor economic choices.
Cope and seethe, lib. And for the love of heaven, learn how capitalization works.
Hyperloop is doomed to fail from the start. It would end up consuming far too much power just to maintain the multi-thousand kilometer long vaccuum chamber.
