Why The US Has No High-Speed Rail
 

Why does this Russian keep posting shit about the US here?

This account is clearly a Putin troll sent to cause chaos and division.

Here in California we have the high speed rail project... They've been talking about it for years but it's been constantly under attack for legal and financial reasons. It's such shame too.

I am not Russian/Я не русский:winkwink::1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Here in FL we had a high speed rail proje t that had been worked on for years. All the property was bought, it was paid for then Republican Rick Scott the former FL Govoner killed it..out of the blue..

Then a year later we find out he is invested in a private company that is trying to take control from the state that very project.. Rick Scott is now a US senator.. a corrupt piece of shit.

Didn't China pull out of that deal in California a few years ago. I was involved with a company here in Maine that had a connection with the Chines government and was told they withdrew funding from the California HSR deal ?

To be honest after dealing with the states of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont i can 100% understand why they would want to remove the states DOT and MOT from any dealings with rail. From my experience trying to get passenger and industrial cargo lines repaired and reopened here it's a fucking nightmare. It's like trying to deal with 5 year olds who's only concern is for their huge paycheck and not having to lift a finger to earn it !

America sucks lol

The oil, car & aviation lobbies in America sabotages and kill high speed rail projects, an affordable public transportation projects.

People use less gas, fly less and use/buy cars less when using high-speed rail. Effective affordable public transportation is the enemy of the oil, car and aviation lobbies.

Sure, sure, sure... or really America just falls waaaayyyyyy behind the rest of the world in... everything lol.

The country is a fucking joke.

Even my fucking brother country has more shit like free health care than th shitty us of a. Ha!

Ok whatever

America is more concerned with having high capacity clips for their guns

Maybe, but why are the women of your country so damn ugly?

This goes much further than Trump. It's something they've been working on for twenty years and it still hasn't happened. Cost is one issue, but finding the space is another.

They built a ten mile freeway bypass in my hometown here, meaning they moved the freeway a few miles... And had to build seventeen bridges to do it. Can you imagine how much money this would cost?

crockett is a Florida Man! :1orglaugh

Better than your homeland of Mexico puta :disgust

It was/is a waste of money. I cannot believe you were in favor of it.

I wish this was a sign that Newsom isn't going to fuck us, but he is going to fuck us.

^^^
racism is gay! :mad:

Lol and you have Kim fucking Kardashian.

Trump fucked us you fucking idiot.

Newsom had to cancel the high-speed rail because Trump cancelled the federal funding for the rail you dipshit. Trump is the one who fucked us not Newsom.

Trump administration cancels funding for California high-speed rail

"The Trump administration said Tuesday that it’s canceling $929 million of federal funding for California’s high-speed rail project and demanding the return of $2.6 billion that’s already been spent."

Your lack of ability to Google any topic astounds me.

High-speed rail means fewer people will be in cars. Fewer people in cars means less gas tax revenue. It's all about the money.

Did Newsom send the refund of 2.6 billion to Trump yet?

:1orglaugh

Sorry bro, you don't know what you are talking about. This was a HUGE waste of money. The fact that Rochead was in favor of it should have tipped you off.
