Elon Musk Hyperloop Wont be built in California

The author believes that the Hyperloop, an idea of Elon Musk, a billionaire CEO of Tesla,  a transportation system that will cut SF LA trip to only 30 minutes, cant be built any time soon.  It will take at least decade.  Regulatory approvals, unions will hamper/delay the project and may decade to build.  California has been ranked as one of the worst place to do business by Chief Executive Magazine

Henessey suggests that it built in Texas instead, say between Austin and Dallas, a distance of only 200 miles (vs SF to LA of 380 miles)

California may be home to Google and Paypal (which are not brick and mortar business) but approving a transportation project in California?....
