this is a boondoggle... a very expensive boondoggle.

You want to get from LA to San Fran (or vice versa), there are already airplanes that do it.

Not to mention the environmental impact of the high speed railroad track and all of the bridges that must be built because you can't have a standard crossing with high speed rail.

There are literally dozens of other infrastructure projects that could be built that would improve more lives...
