Originally published at: THE PRICY CHUNNEL IDEA THAT WON'T GO AWAY
Ever since the nineteenth century and America’s purchase of Alaska from Russia, there have been people proposing a bridge or tunnel, or a combination of both, through, under, or over the Bering Strait to link North America and Asia via a direct overland rail route. Indeed, it may have formed part of the “hidden background”…
… it certainly appears that this would be a wonderful money laundering opportunity. Considering the money lost in California’s High Speed Rail boondoggle (in the range of 135 B, in reality much more than that) this money laundering project could be in the Trillions of dollars. Given the amount just mentioned … it will, most likely, be given the Green (what else could one call it given the amount of money to be lost?) Light. But we should remember that we must fund missions to Mars first then …
The Tsar, richest man on Earth at the time[according to some sources].
Another Rottenchild: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED?
Was that assasination-op, also stacked; with the Chunnel being just one aspect?
In the end; the bottom line is: warfare.
Like its cousin lawfare.
So 20th-Worst Century.
At least herein, the cannon fodder is building out; not hollowing out.
Producing; not destroying.
So unlike them; Rentiers.
The BRICS would benefit; as would the WEST.
A symbolic bridge?
The politics will be CHINESE INTERESTING!
As, it is competition for the New Silk Road.
What are Rottenchilds…, to do?
[Of course, their warfare; their lawfare; etc., etc.; will still go on to…, nowhere… ]
You beat me to it Scarmoge. Was too dazed and confused to reply to this when it popped up at 4am, but even then it was the first thing that came to my addled mind…“where’s that bullet train?”
Leave no politician unturned, no grift left behind…
… Mohg … we must find a way to get in on this “money laundering thing”. I also must say I do not care if it is “Light” or “Dark” money. This MLT appears to be an excellent “business” opportunity.
We seem to know all about the MLT but we do absolutely nothing about it. It must not be too bad a thing.
Damn straight!.. How about a gentlemen’s agreement to share information, pool resources and buy an island somewhere with the proceeds… just before it goes cashless or they implement their new “unrealized gains” on the stock market holdings.
Not many shopping days left till Christmas though. Let’s hustle!
… Maybe we can call this guy. He seems to know a little bit about what is going on.
…definitely a huge money-laundering opportunity… and given the engineering “skill” in evidence at places like Boeing these days, probably not a very safe undertaking either…
