In limited amounts it would be great, it's just the expense would be enormous.
I think the other reality is that we'll never mimic the experience of zipping around Europe, so expectations have to be managed. Your experience of zipping from Vienna to Prague via city centers is just never going to be replicated via high speed rail from Houston to Nashville, for a lot of reasons.

Yup. There would have to be a bunch of stops in between to try and get more passengers, which then makes the overall trip many times longer than a 2 hour flight.
Remember when high speed rail was Obama's pet boondoggle? How much taxpayer money did he spend on it and what did we get out of it? (THANKS OBAMA)
