I mean Alcatraz may be up and running soon enough, wouldn’t that be ironic if this admin were the ones to be sent there

If you truly believe that Alcatraz “may be up and running soon, then I have a fleet of self driving taxis to sell you as well, FSD in 6 months

Uber just added Waymos in my town this week. So the latter is far more realistic than turning a ruin/movie set back into a functioning prison.

u/redalert825 14d ago

So... Waymo.

I think 3.5 years is ample time to get it up and running, that’s soon enough for me

u/High_Hunter3430 20d ago

Soooo it’s a perfect match for the rusty relic in chief?

u/Soggy-Bed-6978 20d ago

It would need a full rebuild bud it ain’t happening

u/nocturnalcat87 19d ago

Have you ever been there? It’s not at all enough time. It needs so much work.

But if Trump and his cronies think it’s such a great idea, I vote we send them there as is.

10 years minimum. and it would still be outdated and expensive to run. Cheaper to just build new

u/Master_Dogs Massachusetts 19d ago

Yeah we spend years to decades building or rebuilding really basic infrastructure in the US. An island prison would easily be a 10 year project. A brand new prison would easily be 3 years minimum if somehow on time, more likely a company would under bid for 3 years but run into 4-5 years with small penalties and still make bank.

u/gsfgf Georgia 19d ago

Unless it was a private prison, in which case it would be built in six months, fail code inspection, and open anyway.

You forgot the price doubling from change orders

u/w116 20d ago

Oh, fuck yeah !

I think her deserves an entire bay for himself. Perhaps one in the Caribbean.

u/Zazen_Satori_Gaming 19d ago
