What's Wrong with Being Second?



January 14, 2020


There is talk of building a hyperloop from St. Louis to Kansas City. This fancy method of transportation would theoretically cut the 4-hour drive to a 30-minute commute. Naturally, building a hyperloop will be both experimental and expensive.

Other areas in the country are pursuing similar projects. 

“This is an opportunity for us to be a leader in transportation’s future,” says a Missouri legislator.


Think about it. How many times has the first version of anything worked well?


Let’s let other places be first; and after they’ve worked out the kinks, we can use the streamlined, functioning version.
