Seattle and Silicon Valley are now joined at the hip. The best approach is to make that connection as efficient as possible, ... Rather than relying on flights, which are often delayed or cancelled due to bad weather, ... someone should build a high-speed rail line.
Good luck with that. It took a world of political arm-twisting to get a modern rail line from LA to San Francisco, a distance of only 400 miles. San Francisco to Seattle is twice that. Not gonna happen.
And Oregon is in between along with Northern California and a lot of Washington state. Every local politician is going to want a stop to develop its own startup hub.
