Elon Musk’s Boring Company Is Tunneling Beneath Las Vegas With Little Oversight

www.propublica.org

Given Musk’s role advising President-elect Donald Trump on ways to slash regulations and government oversight, Boring and the Vegas Loop project might be a harbinger for the country.

I can’t help but imagine the coming tunnel collapse, traffic disaster, or environmental catastrophe from this project being blamed by Boring Co on “state and federal regulators who didn’t do their job”. Because you know they will.
