    Are you saying China didn’t build that rail?

        So, what’s the delusion? Are you saying California has built comparable levels of HSR?

          Thinking “even in rural China people live in condos and apartments with parks between” is hilarious. Tons of rural Chinese still use outhouses and only have communal water sources, no indoor plumbing. They live in simple wooden shacks and cook over an open fire.

          I have absolutely no idea where they 're getting the ideas they have but they’re laughable.

          edit: though to be clear, their high-speed rail system between cities is great and an example the US should look.
