High Speed Rail

Why is America such a shithole compared to all other first world countries? There is no reason all our east coast and midwest cities aren’t connected other than the auto industry lobbying against public transit. I feel like America is either the worst first world country or the best third world country.

ProxyChink strikes again

I like keeping East Coasters in their containment zone

you know the answer, because jews brainwashed white americans into giving money to niggers and faggots domestically while exporting the bulk as aid to israel. this issue doesnt exist in japan or china because jews cant blend in and subvert their governments.

If you like high speed rail systems so much then why don't you marry them?

we send too much money overseas to build anything good here

Because the rich are pillaging our wealth. They do not care to improve our infrastructure unless they benefit.

yes, let's get high speed rail
I'm sure cutting a bit back in welfare should make it easy

China's High Speed Rail is 1 trillion dollars in debt and can't even pay it's operating costs to say nothing of it's interest payments let alone principal repayments.

In my experience most people would love public transit, if not for the public. Other first-world countries don't have the demographics we do, so things are more feasible.

>no reason
Your pic literally tells you why.
>19.5 hours
It would, at best, be cut in half with high speed rail. It's the 3rd most traveled air route, why do we need a slower train?
>same distance as beijing to shanghai
And this is where cost comes in. Between shanghai and beijing you have 350 million people to ride that train. Between chicago and NYC you have 15 million.
>only takes 4.3 hours
It's 2.4 by plane.
>every 20 minutes
Lol again China has multiple times more people taking that route than the US has for this one. Consider how many trains you would need to make this work, and all 30 of your passengers go round. What a dumb fuck.

Funny enough the single biggest impediment to even Acela speed rail service is two old rail curves through poor nigger neighborhoods in Baltimore city. No one whatsoever has the political will to just demolish their shit hole favelas and bring the white man's progress through town.

We also don't have a flat coastline like those two cities do, there's a reason Chinese railroad gets more sparse west towards the mourning

Niggers

Planes are cooler. trains for travel is 3rd world tier. who the fuck willingly goes to Chicago?

It did do better. It invented and/or perfected the mass production of multiple vastly superior forms of transit.

high speed rail is astronomically phenomically expensive compared to highways

the US hiway system was designed after WW2 specifically to transfer military stuff around the country after they saw what happened to europe with all the railroads getting bombed to shit and very difficult to repair

otherwise just fuck off and die with your whiney liberal shit - the rest of us LOVE IT HERE

Comparing this festering shitheap to actual first world countries isn't fair.

Why the fuck should the 70% of taxpayers who don't live in giant shithole metros have to pay a trillion dollars in taxes so metro faggots can travel from one indistinguishable consoomer sprawl to another in slightly less time?

All forms of public transportation in America are nigger/mentally-ill/scum infested methods of travel inferior to the personal car/truck in every way

>Something is bad unless it generates profit
This is your brain on capitalism

kek

>Why the fuck should the 70% of taxpayers
lol do you honestly still think US spending is tied to tax revenue after we just gave the Ukrainians 100 billion dollars?

>>Something is bad unless it generates profit
>This is your brain on capitalism
I didn't say generate a profit I said pay for it's operation, which includes things like upkeep.

Command economies fail because they can't regulate due to not having to balance costs and revenues to see if something is worth doing.

Oh man imagine having to spend money on maintenance of public transit instead of just giving it all to jews

I think you should get the fuck out of my country you fucking dried up piece of dogshit.

No military benefit to high speed trains, not enough demand to justify it when planes do it better by basically every single metric imaginable.

>I'm taking a plane but I wish I were taking a train

What's the fucking difference? You're getting there.

Cause Americans fly nigger.
$71 LGA-CHI with Untied. I mean if you live in Manhattan. I reckon you're poor af cause of the train option so you'll go from JFK due to living in Queens. So mid 80's to fly.

We wouldn't need it in the first place if we burned down New York and Chicago.

People could actually mobile a mass protest. Dont want that. Same reason gas needs to be over 4$.

Idiots talking about building some shit when we should be demolishing some shit

Dont mind the literal mountain range in between them fucktard.

The US already has trains the issue is they are just extremely dated

Have you been on a plane lately?

china done some cool shit ngl, it doesnt have HSR connecting every bit, plus i seen chinaman "engineering" or whatever those apes call it
id buy a car

Yeah im sure that wooden bridge is structural enough for a 300mph train

The flight takes like 90 minutes…

This! So much this. Think of Israel and Ukraine

Wood has nothing to do with the speed of a train…

That's a 3hr flight for comparison ergo Planes are faster than trains

>Have you been on a plane lately?
I flew from LGA to HON yesterday and it was awesome. I had a bed, took the pot and slept most of the flight.

They're great for doing what trains are great at doing, hauling vast quantities of heavy shit long distances. When it comes to saving hours of your life from being wasted in transit, flying wins every time. Who the fuck would save $20 in a trade for 2 extra hours to get where you're going?

If It can support multiple 268,000lbs train cars I don't see why not?

>it doesnt have HSR connecting every bit,
No just a lot more than the US I was pointing out the size of the US isn't an issue we all know what the real problem is with US public transit
