he should look at the mag lev line going up from shanghai to beijing... and then start multiplying the concrete tonnage outward, and then multiply again, by adding all the other projects underway.

or is he talking his book, and will exit, as everyone else piles on.

labor costs are minimal on these projects and all the other layers of costly paperwork versus what is typical for such a project in the de-constructing world.
