We already have a bullet train between Dallas and Houston, and several other cities in Texas. It is called Southwest Airlines, a private, and for now, profitable enterprise. I think they run about 25 flights a day, with about an hour flight time.

SJL, please explain why taxpayers need to waste money and seize private property, to build a gubmint choo choo that nobody will ride? I think a better use of taxpayer money is to invest it in solar power. I hear that the ROI is very strong in green energy.

Exactly

Same in California

North state to southern Cal in less than an hour on Southwest, leaving either every hour or every other hour.

Yet, the Loony libs want to spend a gazillion dollars for a high speed train between Bakersfield (where nobody wants to go) and San Francisco.

F’n libs and other people’s money.
