I'd love to have HSR across this country. Estimates are that it'd cost 550 billion dollars.
LOL. The California bullet train from LA to San Fran is at an estimated $123 Billion to complete and not a single mile of track has been completed since it got voter approval 15 years ago. And when completed it will take 2 hrs and 40 mins. So twice the time and a higher cost than a flight between the two cities.
That's $123 Billion for 500 miles of track.
CA train costs
