I mean it’s different in about every aspect. Each county and city law has to be followed and land bought and fought about. Yes Elon maybhave halted but the project was so grossly under priced and the delays with Covid.
Not excusing but let’s see the clear differences
E: I’m not defending hyperloop or Musk in anyway. I’m saying it’s ridiculous to compare California and China where communist party controls every aspect of life. Surprisingly, California isn’t communist China, where here governments differ and laws are different and labor isn’t the same. Also local governments can fight back and have in multiple counties with law suits, along with budget changes.
This is really fucking obtuse take and should compare the US as a whole, especially when Obama wanted more rails. But surprisingly law suits and lobbyists challenged it hell
Spain: 2 different parties ruling the state, with other more local parties on the mix. Starting on 1989. 4000 km up until now.
It's not because China is a dictatorship. It's because California (and the US) doesn't give a shit.
