You mean the illegal Mexican and South American immigrants can. A lot of Americans think the work magically gets done on it's own.

A week or so ago, the folks from Jalopnik.com took a visit out to the site. Here's what they saw:

Indeed there is.

Obviously I'm no construction expert, but CAN it be done? I think so, yes. But it will probably be close. WILL it be done? I don't know. WeWillSee.

After all the delays and apparent piecemealing of the process, the absence of Hellmund, and the small admin staff, I'm worried about the track being completed, but I'm even MORE worried about the event being pulled off, but in a half-assed way. Hopefully my concerns will prove to be unfounded.

Who built the pyramids?

Plenty of work to do but still bags of time if there are no more disputes.

But of course. Slaves aren't free to leave, immigrants don't want to leave.

Hm, there are many that can't leave either due to all kinds of reasons.
And on the other hand, slaves can always try to escape.

Would one of those reasons be... due to being locked in a dungeon by some creepy dudedess? :whip:
