I was speaking with a California Republican and it seemed one of his complaints about the HSR project was that it was not advanced technology and that if he were in charge it would be maglev.
You run into a surprising amount of chuds who think the bicycle / train, really anything but the car, is outdated and therefore shouldn't be used, despite all of them being invented in around roughly a 50 year timeframe
Yeah but cars have kept getting better and better for 100 years and bikes and trains are basically still the same. Just look at how futuristic the hypertruck is!
I hear so many people who think the only segment of the high speed rail is going to be Merced to Bakersfield and the rest was cancelled. Also thinking they've already spent $100B.
On top of that people say you'll still need to rent a car when you arrive. Only true for some cities.
If it was maglev he'd be against it because it was too expensive and an overkill and they'd suddenly be really concerned with recycling and product life cycle analysis.
They don't believe in anything concrete they're just opposed to whatevers happening.
