  High speed rail such a great way to travel medium distances anyway it’s downright criminal the US hasn’t figured it out yet.

    thank you I feel like I’m taking crazy pills when I think about this. It would revolutionize California. More affordable housing Central Valley with career opportunities in whichever city, less pollution, less car wrecks, likely to stimulate the economy.

    There is a reason Musk tried blocking the high speed rail from getting built- *it’s so he can sell more cars” CA is his biggest buyer, if the rail was built he would be saying goodbye to his foothold in CA.

    If you spend enough time in CA, it’s unbelievable how clear it is this rail needs to be built, and not in the next 30 years, we need it now

      Let’s all keep doing more and getting more people active to get it done. We got this. Same thing for other states as well. With every state getting mid-range high speed rail. Then we can get bullet trains for long distances

  It will happen eventually just needs more people doing and more proper usage of funding. Can’t wait for upgrade from 39.5 million people to 200 million. Making it a full fledged country with amount of people to back it up. If California can develop in same Japan and South Korea do that would be awesome

    It would obviously allow people to live in cheaper committees and commute into the more expensive ones alleviating some of the issues.

    Why are you so defensive and mean about someone bringing that up? Seems like you might have some issues

      Because that implies he might have to carry his fatass to the train one day and he likes big vroemvroem

    Yes but he said “high speed rail” which is popular here so now you’re getting downvoted.

    You’re right of course. It’s an idiotic take.

    It’s kinda like saying housing would be a lot better if there were more forest rangers.

      Mathis is also and incredibly lazy comment. You don’t even point out why it’s an idiotic take, just somehow come up with that and then BAM! “Heh heh… you’re stuuuuuupid…. Heh heh”

      Morons…

        That’s because I’m agreeing with the person and not rebutting the original comment. Which I have no desire to do.

        But I will say this if you think high speed rail will impact housing in California you’re an idiot.
