So… you'd think the USA would be able to built a nationwide, high-speed rail network?

See what I did there?



I mean, they're different industries, so I'm not sure how strong that analogy is.


OP: "So you'd think they'd be able to build a commercial jet liner, no?"

Sigh, the OP chucked out a casual insult at the Chinese because - unlike the USA and EU - their society is unable to (to date) build an international airliner business.

I deftly pointed out that the USA - despite is historical achievements - cannot build a high speed rail network and industry.

Once cannot cherry-pick the data one likes.
