I fucking love the idea of high speed rail, but it's a shame we refuse to do it. I think this country's infrastructure is an absolute joke. Cars are one of the worst inventions of all time.
The reason the U.S. refuses to do it is :porky-happy:
From airlines lobbying to prevent it to privatized railroads intentionally fucking passenger trains over to politicians bought by corporations, :porky-happy: prefers that you use the least effective, most expensive option that makes them the most amount of money.
Rich people are at the core of yet another problem? :gasp:
