WFHWhy public transportation has never been prioritized in the US is beyond me
Well not really beyond me because clearly it’s created an unnecessary industry in automobile ownership, customization and maintenance but I just disapprove
People are really into the car cult here. To the point where people will say it’s “unamerican” to not own a car

California to scale back $77 billion high-speed rail project: governor
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-california-governor-rail/california-to-scale-back-77-billion-high-speed-rail-project-governor-idUSKCN1Q12IICalifornia’s $100 Billion Nightmare High-Speed Rail Project
https://www.cagw.org/thewastewatcher/californias-100-billion-nightmare-high-speed-rail-projectAfter 12 years of delays, mismanagement, and political gridlock, the total cost estimate for the California High-Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) has reached $100 billion. Initially budgeted at $35 billion, former California Gov. Jerry Brown’s dream of uniting California’s coastal metropolises and parts of the Central Valley has transformed into a disjointed, mismanaged fiscal nightmare with rising costs every single year following its inception. The $100 billion cost is 23 percent greater than the highest estimated cost of $81.4 billion that Citizens Against Government Waste projected in an extensive September 2008 joint report with the Reason Foundation and the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Foundation.

Then talk stopped and like four years later they cancel it
Then someone brought up the idea of making the fast lane an “autobahn” lane across California
Not with these s*** city highways. You go 110 in LA and pop two tires and pull a Paul walker- OPJan 20, 2021Thizz

I don't see why you brought up the defense budget. This is literally the fault of some Americans being d***heads/NIMBYs/wanting to drive everywhere and the MTA... well that s*** is poorly managed and bleeds money.
Also America having some weirdo freight train system.
Not saying the defense budget shouldn't be reallocated but don't really see how its relevant.
America will do everything it can to keep the oil companies happy
America could have built the greatest public transport system in the world, but chose not to bc then no one would buy cars and pay for gasoline
