RE: Elon Musk's L.A. Tunnel & Hyperloop One is Eerily Similar to This Failed Attempt From the 1800's

Mr. Beach was a very smart guy. I can't believe Boss Tweed just halted something that could have changed the whole generation. How mean can one get to that extent!!!
Boss Tweed's work would have been built on to make highly technological transport systems today with the huge number of innovative guys coming up everyday. This is sad and a lesson to those that want to use their selfish interests to show power. The damage of some of these decisions are too much to live with.

This sort of thing happened throughout history, happens today, and will continue into the future.
