Why No High-Speed Rail in America

Published

This country has a great deal of woes, and our lack of modern railroads is somewhere among them.  Having said that, I think we need to resign ourselves to the fact that this will never get fixed.  The financial (and thus political) strength of the airline industry is too massive.  The cost of all the easements that would be required is astronomical.  Communist countries don’t have these problems.

Besides, the United States is in the process of becoming an authoritarian regime.  Establishing high-speed rail would be like re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
