tanzbaer··on China laying tracks for 1,000km/h maglev trains
What a bunch of BS. Communism is not team play. It's slavery and tyranny. The US has more team play than most places because people are free to pick their teams.

tanzbaer··on What happens if building more housing doesn’t work?
That sounds pretty close to the third option except you want to limit expropriation to renting. How's that going to work? You think all the landlords will sell to the city? For how much? Can people buy houses from the city to live in them? Where does additional housing come from considering that it's currently not enough? How does the city determine prices and how does it prioritize who gets which place?

In any area more money may or may not lead to a significant progress, but how do you know that's definitely the case for fusion?
