"In Europe and Asian countries, they're traveling now up to 300 miles or 480 kilometers (per hour on bullet trains), while we're traveling on our trains at the same speed as 100 years ago."

Arnie, in the US, we travel on things called "planes" that can cruise at 500 miles per hour. And they leave every large city in California every 30 or 60 minutes for every other large city in CA or surrounding states. Haven't you heard?

Those short-hop airflights have horrible fuel efficiency.
And just getting through Airport Security is often twice as long as the flight!!!
