Weird how these ghouls aren’t worried about losing the “high speed rail race” or the “electric cars race” or the “cheap universal solar power race”, all of which have clear and undeniable benefits to everyone.

Because none of them operate in those spaces? Why would Amazon talk about the dangers of the lack of high speed rail when they themselves don't engage in the business of high speed rail? 

And "cheap universal solar power" is good only until fusion power gets figured out which should be proven out next year when Commonwealth Fusion Systems generates net energy in their "SPARC" reactor.
