    I think we voted for high speed rail from LA to San Francisco in 2012. I think they've laid a hundred miles of track between Bakersfield and Merced. During that same period China dropped over 10k miles of dedicated hsr tracks.

      Florida voted in the late 90s to build high speed rail throughout the state. It was a constitutional amendment!!! Pretty much the most important type of law we have. Not a single piece of track was ever laid.
