    We could just build a mag lev and get there in an hour, that tech is there.

        As capital seeks to eke out even more new markets to speculate on, it does make sense for the basic infrastructure of our country to be included in that.

        Nothing real will be produced here again so long as speculative market bubbles make more near term profit

      Maglev on a test track in Japan does >600kmh (~370mph). Speeds for public operation on the track being built right now is planned to be >300mph, so easily plenty under an hour on currently working technology.
