Didn't Elon send the guy to space for like $5 billion?

We can't even send the guy to freaking Bakersfield in California for $200 billion.

You know, it's Elon.

The real reason for the high-speed rail is... Oh, oh.

Sorry, I shouldn't stop mid-tweet.

My apologies.

Pay attention.

Write this down.

Or just go to Twitter and screenshot it.

The real reason for the high-speed rail is money laundering to bureaucrats, consultants, and unions, not actually transportation.

That is why or where the billions spent so far have gone.

That's why they don't want an actually cost-efficient high-speed transport system.

They don't care about high-speed rail in California.

They care about paying off consultants, administrators, and bureaucrats with your money to make sure that a commercial, free-market-driven, high-speed rail competitor never, ever enters the market if there is one for the product.

I don't even know what – can someone look that up?

How much did it cost Elon, SpaceX, to send a guy to SpaceX?

What does a rocket launch cost?

Meanwhile, they've spent probably 100 times as much.

They can't get a guy from L.A.

to San Francisco.
