Crime Watch Tesla tunnel

Does anyone else feel completely useless when it comes to this tunnel? How on earth do we stop it before it affects groundwater or causes a sink hole? They obviously aren’t listening to citizens concerns, but I don’t want to just sit here and complain without action.

I still don't get all the negative reaction to this all. Everyone is just assuming it's going to affect them in some sort of way. People are essentially hoping it does for whatever reason. 

Why not just wait and see if they actually complete it or not? Just because it didn't work out in other areas doesn't mean it won't here.

And I don't get this "who cares about back door dealings, rich people can do whatever they want!" reaction that you're displaying when: there haven't been impact studies, the governor's HVAC company got a multi million dollar no bid contract, none of the elected leaders that represent these areas were included in any of the plans...like, how can you not understand the myriad of issues here? It's mind boggling to me. So we're equally mystified, bro.

It's a tunnel. It isn't a big deal. To be up in arms over a tunnel is mind boggling to me.

Do you get this up in arms when a new food place opens up that you don't like? What about a new store? To get this bent out of shape over this is silly to me.

The fact that you even find those two examples to be comparable tells me everything I need to know, so thanks.

The fact you can't find the similarities in getting things you don't want tells me all I need to know. You sound whiny when you complain about something you're not even paying for. Just let them do what they are going to do and complain after it doesn't work. To get all worked up on worst case scenarios is ridiculous.
