Nooooo, haha, you don't need high speed rail, you'll hate high speed rail, it's too expensive to build, besides, remember the videos of how crowded the metros are? and you "hAtE oThEr PeOpLe", right? Here, do the fiscally responsible thing and pay a thousand dollars to get harassed by every federal law enforcement agency, stand in our taxpayer subsidized barely held together high speed low drag tube shoulder to shoulder and dick to ass with six hundred other people for four hours, and then die either because we just DOGEd the whole ATC except for private jets or because we dropped any pretense of holding plane manufacturers accountable. We can't tell which and don't care, fuck you, don't build the trains.
