High speed rail is like Drone Delivery.
It's better in theory, or in the future. But right now it's just not feasible for the west. And even in places where it's a good idea it's not cheaper and that's something to consider.
Air travel may be shit and awful and suck and we should totally let it die, but we have to kill the kings that rule first.
Edit: oh yea and we should retroactively charge people 1 dollar per mile they've traveled for leisure in the last 10 years to fix climate change:
Because we've known full well during that decade that by flying you're literally at fault for destroying the planet, and yet libs just kept doing it.
