Why doesnt the US invest into high speed rail like Europe and China?
>>545208598Who wants high speed niggers?
>>545208638This is pathetic cope
>>545208598Niggers
>>545208598YELLOW PERIL FUCK CHYNA FUCK CHINKS
>>545208598YELLOW PERIL FUCK CHINKS FUCK CHYNA
>>545208598You can't run high speed trains on shaky old rail lines with rotten wooden ties. US is the only country still using wooden railroad ties like it was 1880.
>>545208699This is cope because they could still have high speed rail in states where 90% of people are white
>>545208598Cause with a car, you can go anywhere.
>>545208638
Currenyly riding Amtrak's Floridian. We have covered 650 road miles - 10 hours of driving - in 17 hours on the train. Not horribly slow, but not very fast either. We're running about 80 minutes behind schedule, which is pretty good for Amtrak. I paid $75 for the 805 road mile trip to Miami, which is a good price as well.
>>545208598RENT-FREE
>>545208918Makes perfect sense to build a multi billion dollar high speed rail to serve the 2 people a day in Kalispell Montana who want to ride the train to Havre. LMAO
>>545209073good price but must be boring and tedious as hell, would rather drive with friend/family tbf
>>545208598Cuts Chang's commute from 3 hours each way to 2 so good for them I guess.
>>545209044Before diversity>Boring black and white train ride with ugly prudish bitches dressed like lawyers and funeral home directorsAfter diversity>Colorful fun train ride with free entertainment provided by street gymnasts and local hip hop musical talentI'm voting blue no matter who because of this image.
I have driven across 27 states in the US so far and I will say that trains are not really needed. The Interstates are pretty fucking based. Sure some parts might have roads that are a little wiggly and might need an upgrade, but almost everything on the interstates are extremely well made.I really loved how they have made all these various rest stops and gas stations along with motels and hotels across the US. By far the coolest roadtrips I have ever had.And considering how US economy does and transport and everything (its fast as hell), they dont really need a high speed train system. It would cost far more than what its worth.
>>545208918What states are still 90% white? You understand the whitest counties are being targeted with vias jeet bombs right?
America is designed to extract as much money as possible from its citizens. Having high speed rail goes against that attitude.
>>545208598Our laws regarding rail prefers commerce rail over commuter rail.>but commerce has to yield to commuterExcept when commerce rail is too long to yield. In those cases commuter rail must yield and guess how long the shortest commerce rail cars are?
>>545208598Damn alaska
>>545209390>after diversity
>>545208694You can barely fly on a plane anymore faggot, it's a fucking zoo - and I'd likely sooner die than take public transport even to a hospital Amtrak is still comfy however because it's too expensive for niggers and hard to scam for longer than a few stops
>>545208598spain just closed most of theirs high speed rails
>>545208598Curious that the USA network is exactly equivalent to Russia’s network: a single line from the capital to its neighbors It is most definitely what corresponds to the economical cost/benefit optimumAnyhow, no high speed network in either California or Texas is still weird
>>545208918They used to make niggers sit in the bqck of the bus. Maybe make a niggers only train cart in the back to solve this problem
>>545209684We're not talking about a subway here, dipshit
Why can’t we just make the interstates LIKE high speed trains? Autopilot machine driving in convoys that punch into each offramp and so can accelerate to faster speeds mechanically without some faggot zipping around inside them? You know, thinking of interstates no longer as giant roads but tracks for different coordinated carriages to be moved along in synchronization?Oh right, because low trust society and competency means government will autopilot your car into a state funded vehicle crusher, Seems every answer is just ‘things will work when the jews aren’t making everyone paranoid weirdos anymore’
>>545208598china: the chinese government owns literally all money in china and has access to infinite funding and has zero oversight. end product is impressive but low quality, quality of life remains loweurope: much smaller footprint. EU has similar access to municipal funding, but competes with private rail lines. america: it's so fucking big and jews kneecapped rail at the start of the automotive boon so we're stuck with busses on highways and planes instead
>>545209854Holy shit, zero IQ here, did you miss where I said>You can barely fly on a plane anymoreI'll spell it out for ya buddy - NIGGERS RUIN LITERALLY EVERY FORM OF TRAVEL FOR WHITE PEOPLE Hope that helps
Because we have the far and away most advanced roadway system. It isn't even close. We went for decentralized network over centralized network and the economic results speak for themselves.
>>545209396That's really cool that you've traveled so much over here. Yeah the interstate system is pretty cool, but I don't like how car-centric the country is. Would love to live in a place with good public transport, but that's not good for Ford and GM's bottom lines.
>>545208598>invest Bro we don’t have resources for shit here Why do you think our currency is hyperinflating
>>545210091>the economic results speak for themselves.so the rich get rich while poor people stay poor?
>>545208918>they could still have high speed rail in states where 90% of people are white>states where 90% of the population is ethnic Europeans There really aren’t any of those left
>>545210230Our poor are so rich that they are obese pigs with a TV in every room of their multi bedroom houseI wish they would actually suffer and die like you claim they do
>>545210057Cool, I still want fast trains like in every other developed country
>>545208598We have no need of it. We have aircraft.
>>545208598Much like its the chink coast, it would be the same here and be both coasts.Also relatively the coasts dont take up much landspace and were not gonna put tracks in the middle of flyover land farm fields.Its expensive for little gain unless (you) are spearheading and funding said operation
>>545208638guess
>>545210434Shipping goods pays off for sure. Less poopjets in 40 ton trucks as well. Totally worth it.
>>545208598This is why they don't have indians and we do. We should introduce their natural predators.
>>545208598>high speed railDon't worry OP.You can still find some faggots to run a train on you quickly.
>>545210354>I want this so fuck what you want!Main character syndrome. Get over yourself faggot, you're not special.
>>545210354My fellow burger, we just simply CANNOT have such nice things, because niggers and jewsI hope this sinks in
>>545208598the more important question is why aren’t we funding a comprehensive high speed rail system in israel
barely anyone in china uses the high speed lines, too expensive. they use the old green line
>>545208598What are airplanes?
>>545208638Who keeps niggers in their country?!
>>545208598The biggest Europoor cope is that Europa is superior to the US because they can't afford cars to drive somewhere and need to take public transport to get around like the wagecucks they are.
>>545208598Not a collectivist state.So they don't invest as much in collectivist transport.
>>545208598Why ask the same question that has been answered many times, migger?Why reply to your own thread on European VPNs?
>>545210818By all means stay in your cuckmobile>>545210844I refuse to accept that explanation
>I JUST WANT FAST TRAINS OK??THEN WHY DON'T YOU START BY MANAGING TO BUILD ONE IN YOUR RICHEST MASSIVE ULTRA LEFTIST STATE CALIFORNIA GO AHEAD AND SHOW US HOW IT'S DONE AND MAYBE WE WILL TOO YOU FUCKING AUTISTIC QUEERS
>>545211582>explanationLol it's called reality, ignore it to your peril I guess
>>545208598Imagine being in HSR with niggers. KYS OP.
>>545208918and then guess what? Niggers would flock to those states. Niggers love public transportation. Most can't drive legally.
>>545208598Because we can afford to fly and get there faster, unlike those impoverished 2nd and 3rd world peons.
>>545211678Yeah no, it's defeatist cope from a demoralized faggot
there is no real good excuse for why we don't
>>545212063I've got a pretty good one>the only group of people who ever do literally any fucking thing in this country are right leaning white men and they don't care to do this particular thingthat's about it. All of the women and all of the browns and Jews are sitting around waiting for a group of white men (who build everything) to build that too.
>>545212137yeah i mean true.
>>545208598Henry Ford saw to it that cars would replace trains as far as transporting small groups of people over long distances. The automobile was seen as a sign of independence as a train can only go where there is a track. Cars can go almost anywhere. Then Eisenhower saw how horrible American infrastructure was, so he started creating highways across the country. By the 50s-60s, automobile travel was set to be the American standard.
>>545208598>>545212063>wanting jeets, mexicans, and niggers to travel even fasterhow horrifying and jewish
>>545208598Different state laws and regulations make most high speed rails not worth the investment, the existing federal rail system is already nearly 200 years old and cannot support high speed rails, and the states that do “try” are actually just running investment schemes. If we had governments that weren’t just fraud enabling organizations then perhaps the work could be done but ultimately we have too many democrats for anything to ever get done.
>>545211582Oh I will, my 2016 zr1 is pretty damn fun. you'll stay in your pod where you belong, because you're never getting high speed nigger trains faggot

>>545212946>Boomervettekek post your latest blood pressure
>>545208598Because we can afford to just fly. Plain and simple. The U.S. is vast. We have states bigger than most countries in Europe. Not the same geography, population centers and distances involved. High speed rail doesn’t make any sense in the U.S. for most places. Flying does.
>>545208598Because we use planes instead for intercity travel. Our regular passenger trains already cost as much to ride on as our subsidized air travel, so HSR would have to be heavily subsidized to compete (HSR basicaly has to, it's otherwise prohibitively expensive). It's not as flexible as air travel and isn't really appropriate to use for freight either. All forms of HSR has a weight limit, and the closer you get to it, the more expensive infrastructure maintenance costs become. There's a reason even the heavily subsidized Chinese HSR system isn't used for freight. So in the end it's choosing to subsidize air travel, or choosing to subsidize HSR. Air travel is faster, more versatile and has less infrastructure to build.Planes themselves are more expensive to maintain, fuel, etc. though so the costs are closer than it seems. It really comes down to planes being there first, and helping offload costs of other parts of the economy. HSR pollutes less, but clearly our policymakers don't give a shit about any of that. And so you have your answer.>But airports are such a hassle!They didn't used to be. The security theater became a thing because of terrorism and "muh safety" concerns. How many mass shootings in a bullet train do you think would have to happen before train travel becomes a massive hassle too?>Okay but you can't use HSR train as a missile like a planeIt was being put in place prior to 9/11, as a response to other terrorist incidents that didn't involve crashing planes into buildings. Also derailing an HSR train in a city would be a horrific mass casualty event anyways, and would be pretty easy to do after hijacking one, so the point is a bit moot.Finally, you know the security hassle is just for the mass transit side of things, right? There's no hassle at all if you work in logistics or fly private.
>>545212137Basically this.
>>545210564We already have the largest freight network in the world and HSR is somehow even worse than planes for freight.
>>545214385The whole point of high speed rail is to move passenger trains onto dedicated lines to free up the rest of the network for freight, so it doesn't have to take passenger trains (which regularly stop along the route unlike freight) into account. That way both can move faster.
>>545214715I mean, his implication was to use the HSR network for freight.On your point, the thing is we don't run a lot of passenger trains to begin with and they're the ones that get deprioritized (though this isn't what's supposed to happen on paper). I'm not saying there would be absolutely 0 benefit, but it would be so marginal as to not really matter. Like we wouldn't suddenly have trucks on the road because freight congestion was cleared up.It's not that I don't support subsidized HSR rail mind you. That'd be a better use of money than sending money to israel or whatever, and I wish we had it.
>>545215308I do think HSR is a good idea, it's mostly just the bureaucracy and legalized corruption that makes it so stupidly expensive in both the US and UK where there wasn't really a history of building HSR before. HS2 here has run into exactly the same ludicrous time and cost overruns as CAHSR. My hope is that once these finally get finished it will have spawned local industries that can keep going and build more for cheaper.
>>545208598What's the answer to 99 out of 100 questions about America? Niggers.

>>545208598I don't like that railroad man
>>545208598Trains are gay. Real men drive trucks.
>>545209373I prefer car because I want to stop and take detours as I see fit. There is too much interesting stuff you pass by in a train. >>545209840That is our only high-speed rail line. We have about a dozen other interstate passenger rail routes and dozens of intercity commuter rail lines that are not on that map. >>545210564It depends what type of goods. Our friend rail network isn’t subsidized like Europe is, so it isn’t automatically cheaper. And in the bid to stay profitable since the 1960s (because railroad companies were going bankrupt every week back the ), most freight customers stopped being serviced due to railroad unprofitability, forcing them to go to trucks, find a new location, or go out of business themselves. Railroads make the most money on long-distance intermodal shipments. And they make the least on the small businesses that only need one boxcar every now and then. Railroads are super profitable now so I think the government should force them keep servicing the small businesses that the railroads are always trying to shed. FFS, nearly all of the land the railroads are on were given free of charge by the government and much of the rail network was built with either tax money or public-back loans.
>>545219665Seethe less then lil zoomie fag
>>545208598We did and then the Jews fucked it up with a bunch of legal shit because they didn't feel like they were getting a big enough cut so they froze up development until they could monopolize it
>>545208598This is a pretty big reason why
>>545208598>Why doesnt the US invest into high speed rail like Europe and China?Sounds anti sematic trump says that money belongs to Isreal
>>545208598They have been engaging in managed depopulation since the 60's which includes not building any substantial infrastructure for you.
>>545208901The entire American rail infrastructure today is literally just the aftermath of a bubble burst.It's like if the AI bubble bursts and your great grandchildren are still using Nvidia H100s you bought at liquidation.
>>545208598A I R C R A F T Holy shit. Stop asking this.
>>545210354then start seig heiling cuz the only way towards your goal is the expulsion of jews and the extermination of every non-White they've brought in to hinder the White race
china's high speed rail is almost a trillion dollars in debt
>>545234254memeflaggot opinion discarded straight into the garbage
>>545208598We've got these crazy inventions called "cars" and "interstates".
>>545208598>meanwhile in niggerside chicago
>>545208699yeah they have one
>>545208598how many times is this question going to be asked?the answer is always niggers
>>545208598Because the US sends all its money to Israel.
>>545208598How dare you take trillions out of the most corrupt evil oil executives mouths you disgusting communist! Buy a V8 and pay high prices like a real man!
>>545208598Why bother? It'll be just infested with mentally ill niggers, shit covered mentally ill homeless and a ghetto hood niggers and spics.
>>545208598When the country collapses and the population is decimated they want a clean slate to work with. It's only logical. But those countries who don't know this aren't in on the plan. The US will be something else, but it will still be the leader of the world.
>>545208598>why doesn't the US invest in fax machines and typewriters?Because we are rich and successful and don't need laughably inferior modes of transportation compared to the convenience of cars and the speed of airplanes.
>>545211642Yeah about that. Only browns are allowed to be hired in Cali you knew that already though didn't you?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIpzTfXxY6c
>>545208598Our "high speed rail" is barely 100 miles/hour and you can easily find flights that are much cheaper.

>>545208598Why on earth would we want to take mass transit when we all own two or three cars.
Big oil and big auto systematically destroyed public transportation and any infrastructure to force americans to buy cars and be dependent on gas. The lobbied to keep it that way and make $$$$That's literally what happened. The same plot from Who Framed Roger Rabbit lmao
>>545239846>soulless suburban commuter zog golem
>>545209044These aren;t even the same kind of rail transport you fucking mongoloid
>>545208598Auto industry cockblocks attempts to, city planners are also complicit in this.
>>545208598Because Democrats and Jews use high speed rail as money laundering scams against the populace. And spend 250b USD to go nowhere.
>>545208598Because we have planes. They're faster, they're cheaper on a per mile basis and for travel within the US and western Europe they're safer than trains too. If we had no airports or air traffic management infrastructure there might be more of a discussion to be had regarding HSR but planes are already here. What's the point in an inferior alternative that'll cost a fortune to get built out to the point where it remotely competes with the system we already have now.
>>545239968This.
>>545208598>Why doesnt the US invest into high speed rail like Europe and China?The railroads have a monopoly, and they're very protective of it
>>545239754Also, Steve Hilton wants to cancel the project and reverse energy policies to bring gasoline down to less than the national average but he's going to lose the election due to the (R) next to his name on the ballot.Javier Backaria will continue the grift.
>>545239905Mass-TransitGet up early because it takes forever to go anywhere using mass-transit.Walk a half mile to the nearest bus stop in the rain-snow-100 degree weather then wait for late bus in same weather, risking your life because of the possibility of an attack by an American pavement Ape.Then get on bus, still risking attack by pavement apes.Have to wait again at the transfer spot because your bus does not go directly to the train station, same weather same pavement apes.Then arrive at train station still living in fear of pavement ape attack.Take train close to destination where the bus horror starts all over again until you get to where you are going, risking a pavement ape attack the entire jurney.Then you have to do the same thing in reverse to mabey get home before the gouls come out at night.Or you can walk a few feet get in your car and drive right to your destination. With little or no risk of an attack by a north American pavement ape.
>>545208598no thanksyou can keep your cattle sausage car
>>545208598
>>545240053It's actually more a zoning issue. There are VERY few dedicated passenger lines in the US, the vast vast majority are built for freight first and foremost, the freight companies would probably love for someone to start doing passenger only lines but fuck if they are going to spend the money for something that's not going to be profitable for them. Getting them to do basic maintenance is already difficult enough.
>>545210108>bad for the bottom lineAnon please…you know exactly why people don’t want to use public transit let alone have more public transit
There are major issues with mass transit.1. You can go to work somewhere very far away with just paying a fare, so no giant snake on a highway2. The elderly can get to work and travel safely3. There would be less driving and parking spaces4. You could delay destroying the city with rushed development 5. It would not consume enough gas.
>high speed rail is the same as urban mass transitWhat violent nigger is going to be using long distance inter-city trains? They stay in their ghettoes, don't they? Probably couldn't even afford the tickets.>gonna take a weekend break in the country, nigga>sheeit, I gotta important crack deal 6 hours away, better take the train
>>545208598>This thread againBecause it's half the size of the United States and has 4 times the population.
>>545208924HSR can go 3x faster than cars though, but you were probably thinking of air travel.
>>545208598The amount of corrupt palms that would need to be greased would bankrupt the entire country.
>>545209396I'd like a high speed rail system along the east and gulf coast, inb4 niggers, they already exist all along here. It could help with tourist traffic here in flordia as well if we add some monorails to go along with it. Sadly all we got was the retarded sunrail.
>>545208598because numbers, OPlets assume something round and easy, say 1,000,000 dollars a mile of track. Its a math problem. You spend x dollars on tracks and trains then you service y people for those x dollars. USA is a big country and the bang to buck ratio isn;t there, like in smaller countries. I realize China is big but they only do this locally then link the two localities. We have a hard time with keeping BUSES running (govt funding) and you want high speed rails. Our cities aren't the problem, its the 2 hour circle around the city that needs organized transportation into the city and back daily plus night service and its not happening.
>>545208598Didn’t they invent airplanes?
>>545208598Because nobody cares to pay what is $50 worth of a train ticket to when they can just go to shittier trains snd other public transportation.
>>545208598Didn't you watch Spain news? Two high speed trains crashed against each other. USA doesn't need that shit.
China fucking won, their chairs can even rotate,it's fucking over for Muttmerica.
because we have firearms, transportation needs to be limited so people cant just up and go zip across the country and shoot a politician or a jew or whatevercurrently the average american cant even afford the gas money it would cost to get across the country, let alone go home. we'd have to take out a loan or find another way. high speed transit would fix that problem
