Why can't the US build high-speed railway like China?
Taiwan is missing out on HSR
>>545438384Cool VPN, migger.
The US does not have a network of big cities worth connecting with rail. There are only a couple of corridors which are already served
Niggers would ruin it
>>545438541Just implement social credit system and deny them tickets based on that
>>545438533sure we do, and they are. hell you can even be a passenger if you want. ain't quite legal but as long as you don't do anything untoward they won't mind much
>>545438384We use planes, which are superior in every way. They are faster, more environmentally friendly, cheaper and you need only a runway at both ends instead of ruining your land with physical tracks
>>545438762>instead of ruining your land with physical tracksOh, fuck off
>>545438533The USA has more miles of rail than any country, its only used for cargo because we use planes for travel, which are superior in every wayhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_rail_transport_network_size
>>545438384OK but why
>>545438602Das rasis! We finna burn yo trains now!
>>545438859Not if they go 300 km/hr. Niggers are fast, but not that fast.
>>545438829Its true, a runway is so much more environmentally friendly than building tracks, in fact, you never will pay down the carbon cost compared to flying. Build run = done. Tracks = plowing up land, grading, building bridges, tunneling through mountains, etc its retarded compared to flying
>>545438947Commercial planes fly 800-950km/hr
>>545438947I'm so glad that the trains would never stop at any single place. That will ensure their safety completely.
>>545438952Yeah, but you got crazy highways going through all of your country. Don't pretend this is about landscapes.
>>545438384Calcified bureaucracy and corruption more than anything
>>545439039Trains usually stop after consuming enough jeets and needing some sleep to digest them properly. That is the only time the train is in danger.
>>545439081no, its about speed and cost, but environmentally its a disaster as well. You can fly from nyc to la (4000km) for $60 and it takes 5 hours. A highspeed train would take 15 hours or more with stops and cost hundreds of dollars. A car takes 40 hours and costs hundreds in gas. Planes are simply superior in every way so we use them instead of rail for travel
>>545438384> Need to win the lottery to own a car> Somehow this country is used as an example of good infrastructureThe reason chinas behaviour on this is excusable, is because they are growing quickly and not that wealthy.The west does not have this excuse.
>>545439362I once flew from SF to DC. Terrible airlines, but awesome value.
>>545438384We have Brightline in Florida. It's pretty nice.
>>545438384You guys are right, it's time we built Israel a HSR network. Oh golly, my master is going to love this!
>>545438613>>545438845HOLY NIGGER SHIT CAN YOU FUCKING FAT ASS NIGGER BURGERS EVEN READ???THE US ONLY HAS A COUPLE OF CORRIDORS THAT MAKE SENSE TO SERVE FOR PASSENGERS (NORTHWEST AND LOSSAN) AND THEY ARE ALREADY SERVEDCHINA HAS A SHIT TON OF GIGANTIC CITIES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY
>>545439586the usa has 1/4 the population of china but we are larger landwise and our cities are more spread out
>>545438480cant wait for miggers to try the shit they did to iran on taiwan
>>545439006You can just hop in a train while you have to account for the hours of waiting and security fingering your butts and all that in the airports. Coast to coast airplane is obviously better but many close areas a train would be much faster.
>>545438541They should force african americans to build it, like a social program, some sort of positivo discrimination, blacks will get work spending time with black people and build a railroad, fun for brothers
>>545438384We have foid-piloted planes.
>>545438384There are a number of other things you can point to, but i actually think the biggest is the inconvenient local transit. The beauty of taking the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Kyoto is that there's a local subway and bus system that can get you where you need to go. In contrast, if you go from Houston to Dallas, the metro system will suck for getting you to work or your appointment, and you'll have to fork out for a rental or uber.
>>545438384Let's just wait another 10 years or so and see how well that Chinese train system agesIt takes a lot of maintenance to keep these complex systems operating correctlyWill they do it? Will they keep them in good working order?
>>545439806We have a program called TSA PreCheck where you get prescreened and then can walk in, go into a separate line and walk through some metal detectors and be from car to plane in under 5 minutes. Also TSA is only present at 440 of our 20,000 airports
>>545440073Then you have to deal with shitty local transit at your destination. The case for HSR in America is linking regional cities for commuters like the Texas Triangle or the Piedmont corridor from Montgomery to Charlotte for business travelers.
americans are the most brainwashed people on the planet they where made to believe that public transportation is socialist and not only that they where also bullied into believing that big cars are better than small once so they can spend even more of their money on oil and can get milked even morethey are cattle unironically cattle. And they celebrate their dumb cars and call it freedom. You cant make this shit upEvery single aspect of american life is monetized
>>545440073>defends tyrannyAnd how many vaxxes and booster shots did you take?
>>545439586you didn't specify passenger rail in your first post, you spastic retarded wop
>>545438384high speed rail and niggers/browns are incompatible.
>>545439806Have you ever taken a train in china? Murrifat TSA is a joke compared to it.
>>545441304Their politics are perverse with a shitcoins rug puller as president. All left or right wing e celebs are pure grifter.It's disgusting seeing that nonsense from far away and the cattle horde gobbles it simply up.
>>545438384They don't have money left for HSR after sending them to Israel.
>>545441745No I know only about trains in Germany and here it's fine.
>>545442406Well there you won't even get near the train station without a ID check, ticket inspection, full x-ray and body search. No liquids, no sharp objects, nothing.But be happy you will have that in germany next year.
>>545443027This will negatively impact German punctuality, millions must wait.
>>545443214Well their trains are on time if they're only 1h late so there's that. German punctuality doesn't exist anymore since DB got privatized.
>>545443381it will be interesting to watch the collision of japanese train culture and third world incompetence collide
>>545443725Imagine jeets riding on top of the Shinkansen and they fly off the handrails at 300kph
>>545438384Because in the US you can't build anything without a 10000 step approval process including investigating every inch of soil to see if there is a rare beetle or worm. Also there is constant grift and corruption.
>>545438384the last time they tried a bunch of jeets just embezzled the money kek
providing cash to israel is #1 priority. And those jewish bloodsuckers in the US apparently do not care about transportation infrastructure too much. I mean I visited United States in early october and drove 3000 miles along Interstates 80 and 90, from east to west and back again. Road surface quality is mediocre. Meanwhile you can’t drive 20 miles without running into a roadwork. I saw plenty of lanes closed with no visible construction taking place. Their road maintenance thing is a scam. Probably ran by jews as well
>>545438384>Why can't the US build high-speed railway like China?WE NEITHER NEED NOR WANT HIGH SPEED NIGGERS.
>>545441479>you didn't specify passenger rail in a passenger rail threadamerican IQ at full display
>>545438384America's high speed rail network is optimized for cargo because transcontinental passenger travel via trains does not make sense in the age of jet airliners. >inb4 that's not high speed>how fast do your cargo trains move
>>545438384It was right about the time we started doing this that the whole world began plotting against us
>>545449108>the age of jet airliners.if i want to go some place that is 4-6 hours away by car, i'd rather take a train that will take 2-3 hours. it will take 4 hours by plane, door to door. america just wants to be stuck in 1970 for some reason.
>>545438384Niggers and one half of chinkland is uninhabitable mountain wasteland
>>545438384America is too broke, brown, and stupid to accomplish great things anymore. No new cities, no new infrastructure projects, it’s all just decline and decay from now on.
>>545438480Are you retarded there's 300km/h HSR there
>>545438384I always wonder why the Asians here are so obsessed with choo-choos, then I remember they all have autism
>>545438384California has been working on it for fifty years. I'm sure they'll actually lay down some tracks soon. Here's the scam- in the US when you are in politics you can decide to build a railway to make you and your friends rich. First, you buy up all the land around where the stations will be and sit on it. Then you propose a railway going through those areas. They are guaranteed to increase in value. Since you decide where the railways go and where they get built, it's free money. There's a reason why people have left California in droves and it's entrenched Democrats who makes their fortunes from corruption. Are things like that in China?
>>545438384>Cost per mile Look how efficient capitalism is. It's getting almost 3.5x the money for a mile of rail compared to the inefficient communist system. I would hate to be a shareholder in China.
>>545438384They probably wanted a war with Iran and decided to keep out oil dependency.
>>545438384Jets are just better. Even with the shitty airport and TSA. The California HSR would take longer and cost more than flying from SoCal to NoCal. If it was at least cheap I'd understand why you'd want it but its not.
>>545451561TIL Japan is Taiwan.
>>545438384Niggers
>>545438384America has more urgent priorities
>>545451110>i'd rather take a train that will take 2-3 hoursCool, move to the Northeast Corridor, Florida or wait a couple of decades and maybe you can do that in coastal California. It doesn't make sense in Iowa or New Mexico.
