    Would you rather spend 15 minutes in a cramped windowless pod, or 40 minutes in a spacious train with a bathroom and snacks, looking out the window at the Minnesota countryside?

    Right now is not the time for that argument. I think I’d prefer the pod.

    A small part of me wants the hyperloop grift to make it a little bit further, just far enough to be protested, just because the protest signs will be hilarious. But as much as I want to wave a sign around with Thomas the Tank engine reading Choo Choo Motherfucker, or perhaps just Build a Train, Dumbass this feels like an irresponsible use of my tax dollars.
