There are no happy people in Canada
They may think that they are happy waiting a year to see a doctor when they are sick, but they actually have no clue what life should be

They just legalized cannabis for one thing. It means the people get to decide the laws, not the corporations. ( at least not as bad as here)
It takes a year to see a doctor in Canada, meaning that people die waiting.
Really
And this is what retards like you want here

The Haramain high-speed railway (Haramain referring to Mecca and Medina Islamic holy cities), also known as the Western railway or Mecca–Medina high-speed railway, is a 453-kilometre-long (281 mi) high-speed rail line in Saudi Arabia. It links the Muslim holy cities of Medina and Mecca via King Abdullah Economic City, using 449.2 kilometres (279.1 mi) of main line and a 3.75-kilometre (2.33 mi) br…

Yes, it will.
Now to put it into perspective, the California Bullet Train now under construction has already cost over $100 billion, and is expected to if ever completed cost in the area of $500 billion to just go from LA to San Francisco.
That is half a trillion dollars, for a train to go 400 miles. And not even a "hyperloop", just a bullet train like they have been making for decades.
This is where Elron Musk and his fantasy breaks down. Hell, they just finished for over $50 million a slow moving taxi. Heck, remember when it was first announced? The Internet does not forget.

A Las Vegas City Council meeting declared that the Loop would use autonomous Tesla vehicles that will run north under Las Vegas Boulevard.

155 miles per hour! 4,000 passengers per hour! The greatest thing ever, that will revolutionize the world! Completely autonomous vehicles!
Uhhh, no. It is taxi drivers going at slow speed in a tunnel, 3 passengers at a time.
This is the problem, you are believing all of the hype without applying logic and reasoning, and at least a healthy dose of skepticism. It will cost a great many trillion dollars, because even after all of the money poured into it, it still does not exist.
It exists as much as the flying wing passenger jets that were promised 60 years ago.
No one will be able to travel that 400 mile stretch daily and the project will be one of the biggest waste of money ever

The first high speed line should run between Dallas and San Antonio. Logistically it can be done more easily and affordably in open terrain than say DC to Boston or SF to San Diego.
Atlanta to Miami would be packed every day.
Gasoline is $6 (US) a gallon in Europe and before long it will be that much here and probably $10 there.

buuuut the train doesn't even go from LA to San Fran, it goes from Lancaster/Palmdale, to Tracy CA. So, 65 miles away from LA. And almost 80 miles from SF. Like I said, from nowhere, TO nowhere.

Why? There isn't enough traffic to support that. The only place where a bullet train has a chance is along the NY to DC line. No other place in the USA can support it. And right now, thanks to the covid bullshit, and the exodus from NY, even that line is no longer supportable. Just because you can build something, doesn't mean you SHOULD build something.

Angelo Actually, California is one of the best in many ways.
Still lots of open land between the cities. And a major corridor to build it along. But there are also topological features to take into consideration, and they actually started building it without considering how they will overcome them. Kind of like trying to build the Brooklyn Bridge, and only as they were half way through realizing there is a large difference in elevation between the two sides. Or half way through building the Golden Gate Bridge suddenly going "Gee, there is a huge fort on the South side, how are we going to get past that?"
True, California is doing it all wrong, but the challenges of even a 400 mile bullet train are nothing compared to that of the mythical Hyperloop. Might as well try and say the transit solution of the future is going to be flying unicorns, that once at the station can poop flavored ice cream.

Keeping in mind, these ideas should have been implemented decades ago, when it was more feasible--many routes could have been constructed alongside new Interstates, etc....Japan's had them since the 90's.

Nope, there isn't enough traffic to warrant a Chicago NYC route either. It is extremely expensive to run high speed trains. There are TWO, worldwide, that can pay for themselves. TWO. If you can't pay for yourself, then you shouldn't be built.
No express train from DC to Boston would be possible because people would want to get off along the way and these people would not travel making the line dumbCalifornia was the worst place to attempt it.
