Doing the same in California would be 10-100x more expensive though, people are just cheaper there.
- lazide 3y agoIt’s way easier to tie everyone up in manipulative bullshit court proceedings in the US, and no one has the incentive/interest in stopping it right now. It isn’t even about 10-100x cost, if it was straightforward cash. It would be resolved in weeks if that was the case. In many of these equivalent situations, it drags out for decades. At that point, it’s a toss up if the project even makes sense anymore, since everyone who needed it when it was voted in/started has moved on (by necessity) to something else. In China, the courts basically just say ‘which way does the CCP want this to go?’ and voila, that happens. For better or worse.
