This accident will not bankrupt Norfolk, let’s assume they had to purchase in full every single house (which won’t happen) you would be looking at $250M-1B at most, and then let’s say the total clean up cost was $1-2B. And let’s add another $500M-1B for other misc legal fees, damages, political bribes, etc. the total damage your looking at is $2-3B maybe $4B if they are able to squeeze them for every possible thing and the courts slap on additional fines. Heck even if they needed to give $1M per person to cover life long health costs, and other personal damages that would tack on other $4-5B at most.

That would just mean that they would take a loss of profits for 1-2 years. This won’t bankrupt the company or get close to bankrupting the company. And that outcome is likely to never happen, we would never see a company held responsible to this degree, but even if we did they would still be fine in the long run.

My dog walks a few miles a day and his nails are about this long. He uses his nails to grab his toys, and they don’t bother him one bit, they don’t scrape on the floor or tap the floor as he walks so there is no reason for me to trim them.

The only nail I have to deal with is his dewclaw, somehow he sharpens it to make a razor blade every week so I do have to sand that down.

I have major doubts about it being faster. Concrete forms for a standard house can be set up in a few hours with a small crew of 5-10 people. And with a line of concrete trucks it can take a few hours to pour the walls, the forms are usually removed the following day, and the walls are useable immediately. From start to finish poured walls can take 1-2 days to set up and pour.

The article says it will take 330 hours to print this house, which is way more time then it would take to set up forms and pour concrete walls.
