If Musk wants to pay for it, let him. I would add one condition: that the specifications of the tunnel be such that it would allow for a regular rail-based system to be built in the future. That include turns that are not on too tight a radius, minimum tunnel size, strong foundation, two independent parallel tunnels for uninterrupted two-way traffic, etc. That way he has his chance to build his Tesla system and turn a profit, but if it fails or if he decides to cut and run in the future, the infrastructure is still in place to replace it with an already proven type of mass transit system.
