why doesn't america have highspeed trains
>>541874238We have roads
n
>>541874238because high speed trains are for the poors. the rich fly, if anything we should stop forcing airlines to have economy seats. everyone already knows its the business class and first class seats that do the real heavy lifting. fuck the poors.
we settled for sober speed rails after our party phase
america is a 3rd world country
why don't highspeed train havers season dey trains with niggers ?
>>541874238Having high speed trains is communist because it's what China does. Real MAGA patriots support crumbling, slow, inefficient subways where you can get stabbed to death by niggers easily. MIGA!
>>541874238There are many things wrong with America but high speed rail is actually not as worth it as people think and it will be hard for Asian countries to maintain them in the future with population decline. Unless you want more jeets, that is.
>>541874638Yes I would rather get stabbed by niggers in a high speed rail instead
for years this question has been asked and answeredyou already know why
>>541874238because we have higher-speed planes
>>541874238We dont want to use them. I dont want trains. I want to drive my car, be independent, easily pack anything I need or want with me, and go directly to my destination instead of a station then relying on a cab or bus or ANOTHER train to get me somewhere.
same with "why did malls die?" god
all our railroad bandwidth is for transporting goods.a lot of people would like one but boomers and "i have a car why do i need a train?" retards always vote down infrastructure bills.
>>541874238Third world
Population density and vast distances. We don't need them.I am a firm believer in North America we need safety back, and reliable Vehicles and Road Trips.I believe sustaining freedom here, not just lawfuly but psychologically snd creating once again a strong population... having access to a personal vehicle and ownership (pride in something to care for and investment) is Key.
>>541874238We had to spend 40T on Israel and jewish bullshit
>>541874926>retarded mentality that public transit = oppressiondo you enjoy hour long traffic jams?
>>541875020Lol do you actually believe that our entire debt is because of Israel?
Different energy, landscape, geography... more freedom vs I hop here go there, I want to go off road a bit, see there type of thing.It creates a specific subpsychologocal profile.Which btw is being killed off... intentionally.Cresting a North American Useful Person is a layered thing. And this was a key component of it among other things.Clearly weaknessss was induced deliebretly to not only control, but render so usless and stripped away from function within environment unable to sustain environment, region and security. As individuals and groups.Vehicle ownership and cheap access is just again, one aspect.
>>541874238Because we're a nation run by Jew worshiping rednecks.
>>541875062Israel, jewish billionaires and niggers empowered by jewish advocacy. They don't call it a "linchpin issue" for no reason, Anon.
Everything America is centered around the fact that they live together with 40 million niggers. They can't have any "public" service with those animals around.
>>541874238how do trains benefit the kingdom of (((god)))?
>>541875129Better them than people who think men can become women. Both are shit choices but at least my stock portfolio is up thanks to the rightoids.
>>541874238Because that would be communist and only private entities should be able to enjoy American wealth.
>>541875209>my stock portfoliopost nose
Why dont you let me run a highspeed train on your wife? With my DICK.
>>541874887Also add-imagine the cost to cover the distances. Here's US vs SK.Plus our geography is brutal- mountain ranges, deserts with flash floods, enormous canyons, rivers everywhere, extreme seasonal temperature fluctuations, earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, snowstorms. And wildlife- to avoid hitting buffalo or elk herds in parts of the country we'd have to put up 1000s of miles of fencing, and countless wildlife barriers and passes.
>>541875234Post your wife’s boyfriend’s checking account commie.
>>541874238It's impossible to have high speed rail in the US. Just doesn't work here for some reason. Cars are way better anyway.
Why would they have high speed trains when they have mile long queues where they can honk at each other for hours and everyone driving a SUV with zero knowledge on how to drive it?
>>541875041You are Retarded.We can Fix everything, and pair it with public transportation as well. But we must be understanding of many things in depth, the enemy sure is and knows how to strip it off bit by bit. You probably never grasped much of how and why.For example, in Asia they do kore bikes... Russia is more family car thing, but teens no. Culture, works for them.Here, it's Family carz and Your car, even more freedom but it has to align with natural safety, security snd other layers like not moving ten times and having a home... people you know like neighbors... to create that optimal extra freedom profile with a grounded enough community investment, you know to care. So when ccp knocks the will care enough, because the layer is optimal and lifelong.Every place has it's requirements snd what fits, works, is useful for the individual and community not just always convenient only.It's more complex than that in thousand folds... id take me a year to write it snd you'd grt lost in this alone probably.Bottom line is, personal vehicle access here without rent this forever is Important. In more than one way.
>>541875330>for some reason Are you people actually fucking retarded? It’s not a secret. The land is too big and the people are too spread out. It’s really not hard to understand.
>>541875316BoomSimply put, euroFAGGOTS and third world shitholes cant comprehend the greatness of America.
>>541875330passenger trains are a giant waste of moneytheir obsolete ever since the invention of the car and just kept alive by nostalgic retards that like to waste taxpayer money
>>541875403how come china can do it but not america? it must be cause you're fucking retarded
>>541874238Because boomers think that cars can scale to an infinite number of drivers. They also never stop complaining about getting stuck in traffic.
>>541875659Because China doesn’t give a fuck about any of its citizenry that don’t live in cities. Also China isn’t big on personal freedoms. Shocking right? China is the opposite way anyone should run a country.
>>541874238No monie..
>>541874294You mean roads with a max speed limit of 85 mph? That's sorta the speed of a classic train not the highspeed one
>>541875744>Wahhhhhh I need to live in a big city for reasons. Wahhhhh I can’t afford a car because I’m a drug addict wahhhhhhh if I can’t afford a car nobody should have one wahhhhhhhh Lol
>>541874238look into the california HSR, any hope for that project has been destroyed by corruption, regulation, competing interests, and profiteering middle-men
>>541874238I am actually just learning about this now. We had the first railroad but its not high speed? Are you for real?
>>541874867Remind me if I can arrive at the airport 5 minutes before departure and why
>>541875822>+1 triggered boomerI own my own car. However, I am wealthy enough to live in a walkable urban area, so I don't really need one.I am mocking you for being completely and utterly reliant on cars, and pretending you have a choice in the matter. You options are (1) pay $900+/month to lease a truck, plus pay gas and insurance, or (2) just die.
>>541874238Because the high speed train is an irresistible force to the Pajeet
>muh airplanesAirport security completely negates the increased speed, plus you have to commute and park at an airport unlike railway stations which are right in city centres
>>541875321schlemiel schlimazel hasenpfeffer incorporated
>>541877760how are the people who don't live in the city supposed to get on the trains? instead of being able to drive to the airport which is usually somewhere outside the city, you have to drive into the city where there's no parking, or else drive to a smaller train station outside the city and then take a slower train just to get to the high speed station.
>>541878137You almost get it. Keep thinking
>>541876438You just invented an entire history in your head that doesn’t apply to win an argument with a stranger who doesn’t care if you live or die. Sad. Bigly sad.
>>541874525Some say we are a 4th world country
>>541878372Yeah, people with too much artificial estrogen in their bloodstream. I fucking love America. I love everything about America. What I don’t get is why people risk their lives to come here and immediately start trying to change it into the country they just left. Nope.
>>541874238Because our country is so fucking huge you'd still be required to take another fucking mode of transportation after getting to the hub you traveled to. The City of LA is 34,000 square miles in size. Compare that to Seoul's 4,000 square mile area.
>>541874238niggers, and more recently beaners.Ultimately the answer is jews since they imported all the shitskins to fight "White Supremacy" or whatever
>>541874238Because burgerland is not as small as for example germany and they are also carbrained.
>>541878477>What I don’t get is why people risk their lives to come here and immediately start trying to change it into the country they just left.Operation paperclip was very silly
>>541874294kek i have seen picture of your "roads"
We have plenty of trans people, chud.
>>541874238niggers
>>541878829The potholes add to the patriotic aesthetic
>>541878829Even here in Northern Arkansas the roads fucking suck. I live in a micropolitan area and there are bumps and holes all over the road. At least up north they had the excuse of plows and freezes fucking up the roads. Here there are no plows and it hardly freezes. Yet the roads have random holes in them. The fuck. So yeah the "roads" are dogshit even where there's no excuse
When you have a high maintanance gf like israel chan to upkeep you simpley cannot afford the finer things in life.
Imagine building a conveyor belt that brings bears, wolves, and blood sucking ticks to your front door. Oh wait, that's local transit.For high speed rail we don't really have the population density outside of the northeast and SOCAL corrider. I am from Chicago. Where would I use high speed rail to go to? Milwaukee? Detroit? I can just drive. If it's further I can fly. Also we had just got done building out our interstate system when high speed rail took off and politically it would have been weird to build another duplicative system.
>>541876059Yes you can. You just have to make the roster of a professional sports team
>>541878351>Doesn't address my points>Instead whines that I made them>Somehow <2 lines => "entire history">Claims totally doesn't care as tears pour down his face.Libtard coded response. I bet you weigh 300 lbs and have matching estrogen levels. The only thing impressive about this post is how you managed to densely pack so much pathetic whining into one sentence.
>>541874238Because niggers would just ruin them anyway.
>>541874238One of the most hostile and corrupt regulatory environments in the world for passenger rail. And you typically need a car in the city you're going to.
>>541875157It's mostly boomer welfare programs like SS, in reality; followed by Medicaid and the military.
>>541874238But there are trans high on speed
>>541874238Short answer, the big 3. The auto industry actively lobbied against mass transit of all kinds. More recently, the airline industry for similar reasons.>>541874926I agree to an extent. The freedom to hop in a personal vehicle is amazing and should never be taken from us. That said, high speed rails offer an alternative to increasingly expensive and environmentally damaging (if you care about that) airline industry. The vast majority of travelers are people traveling for work. If high speed rails can transport people in about the same amount of time or slightly more than it takes to arrive early at an airport and catch a plane, I see no negatives to society. It’s insane that there are people that commute to work on 45 min regional flights. Mass rail transit has its place and it does not have to be an all or nothing dynamic where all personal transit is replaced by mass transit.
Why does South Korea have high speed rail when it’s a super small country compared to Japan, Italy or France.
>>54187581985 miles almost the whole way to the destination no waking required or dealing with crowds of soulless bug people also having a vehicle with a cooler seats for your family space for groceries is pretty important
>>541875403There are a number of megaregions like the Texas Triangle or I-85 corridor that could benefit from it. The problem is that boomers start to see dollar signs and start the "I know what I got" routine when there's any hint of land purchases, and you have to pay a bunch of de facto bribes with endless feasibility and impact studies. And then you want good transit at the destination like Osaka to Tokyo. Fuck taking a train to have to rent a car or take a taxi to get anywhere at the destination for any kind of work commute.
>>541874238We like driving here.
>>541879200>no uDo better.
>>541874238hang yourself gook
>>541874238The trans are already screeching enough and causing problems and committing acts of terrorism. What do you think would happen if there were highspeed trans?
>>541874238We do nigger. CSX is our train ride
>>541879980>more pathetic screechingmogged.
>>541874238>why doesn't america have highspeed trainsjews.The jews want to make life miserable for the working White man.What better way to keep the White man under the jewish boot of control than to make for maddening insane commuting while extolling the virtues of the freedom of the "open" road.The jews must be completely eradicated.Hitler was right about the international jew.
>>541876059hey dumbass, the train takes 3 days to go 2000 miles. the plane can get there in 3 hours. whether or not you have to get there an hour early to go through the performative terrorist screening doesn't matter.If you're talking about taking a train for a 200 mile journey, then that's stupid. just take a car or a bus. The train is an outmoded method of transportation that has been superseded by the car at short range and the plane at long range. It only makes sense if you have to move a million gooks every day or your shitty euro roads can't handle large volumes of cars because they were build 300 years ago.
>>541874238>>541881228
>>541881936trains are good for urban mass transit but yea I don't understand the concept of intercity train travel, at least not in America
>>541874238You know why
>>541874238The biggest benefit of train travel is being dropped of in the middle of a city and walking/ taking a bus to your destination, most american cities outside the northeast have poor public transport and a downtown that consists of mostly parking lots, it just make more sense to drive to these places or fly and rent a car.
>>541875921This. Billions of dollars(?) and 20 years later. We have a bridge in the middle of nowhere.
>>541874238how would that generate profit for the big 3 and the oil companies??
>>541874238>why doesn't america have highspeed nigger delivery systems
>>541882839It does. They are called trucks.
>>541882468>american cities were replaced with car centric sprawl, that's why we had to replace them with car centric sprawlthey have poor public transit because people have cars, people didn't buy cars because public transit was poor. cities HAD public transit, it was all ripped up and destroyed in the 50s after lobbying by car companiesyou're literally reversing cause and effect, and assuming the effect is just an unavoidable inevitable thing
How would highspeed rail work for rural americans? How would we get to the stations? How do I carry my groceries home?
>>541874238trains in America are filled with fucking scum much like the rest of the country
>>541883285the honest answer is that that question doesn't really matter80-90% of americans live in urban areas, so the at most 20% of people that would "suffer" from places they don't live having better infrastructure can cope and sneed
New Train thread just dropped!
>>541874238They are useless when every citizen has three cars.
>>541875316Their productivity puts all your flyover states to shame.
>>541883421So would the country do eminent domain on millions of people in urban areas when theres already a housing crises going on? I bet that would go well
>>541874238in early days because of a conspiracy of auto manufacturersthese days because modern companies change execs so often that no one wants to eat the cost of a project they won't be around to take credit for, and railways are long projects
I know why
lol nobody wants to ask me
>>541884432Alright, I'll do it:me?
>>541874238they do, they call it 'Amtrak' instead of something normal like 'US Railway' like a normal (communist) country
>>541884722because. America and it's ways are not to be the future. Can't have the good stuff. An example is being made here.
Technobros know how to make a positive , wholesome internet that strengthens social values. Yet they choose not to. Why?
>>541874294/thread>>541874238that was a good question, do you have more?
>>541874238so they can sell you the gas? what kind of retarded question is this? everything is about price/gallonplus personal transport is fastest with planes over longer distances. car infrastructure is very useful for a lot of shit being transported, machinery/tools etc
>>541874238you faggots got high speed trans instead lmao
>>541887851>high speed trans
>>541874238the same reason the US doesn't have high speed internet to the home in most places outside the cities
>>541874238Faultlines. The Faultlines are too active to be monitored everywhere all the time. Everywhere, baja to alaska, yellowstone, new madrid, the glaciated east, even the southeast, are all due for big geological events.
Some of the cucked shit in the East coast is that the tracks aren't owned by the commuter train companies so the freight gets right of way. That slows passenger trains down and since the tracks aren't owned by them either they can't be upgraded for high speed rail. It's gay as fuck.
