"Let's Build a Tunnel!"
Another Musk Drabble
"Hello, Elon?"
"Yes, Mr.President."
"I have our friend Vladimir on the line here. He suggested you start building a tunnel between Russia and Alaska."
"How will that help me go home? It's underground! I need to explore space!"
Putin, "Hi Elon, let me explain. The money you get on government contracts from both countries and the fees from hauling all sorts of minerals and goods through the tunnel can be redirected to SpaceX. Just imagine how many billions we all could make from this!"
"Oh wow, that is indeed unlimited potential, Mr.Presidents! Let's build the f*cking tunnel! I'm so excited!"
