That's how Russia does everything. Throw bodies at it. Not really an engineering necessity.

Died? It's a plan on paper. No one ever built anything. And in 2025 it would be pretty low risk, TBMs are commonplace and we have drones.

The Russians have had rail in Siberia forever.

This was planned out 20+ years ago for cars and rail there just wasn't ever the political will to do it.

It makes sense geographically. Not as much geopolitically.

Actually, back when this was originally thought up 20+ years ago, there was a more expensive version with another sea tunnel between Washington and Alaska.

True, a boat caught in the SS USA's wake would be a better metaphor.

You're in a very similar boat. Starmer, AfD, Orban, that idiot from Italy who's name isn't worth looking up. Fascism is on the rise and ruins trade every time.

Welcome to NASDAQ. Where everything is made up and the points don't matter. That's right folks, the points are like TSLA's earnings, completely meaningless.

The US is self toppling. Give it a another year. Cooking the books doesn't work when you're leveraged beyond what you can cook.
