    If it’s as simple as high-speed rail, the US can and will do it by themselves.

    It’s been decades, if the US was capable of building a high speed rail network, they would have done it. We tried and failed. There’s 3 HSR lines, one of which doesn’t even average 60 miles an hour, but theoretically could do 180 if it wasn’t for the highways and NIMBYs.

    Edit: There is 1 HSR line, the one in California is still being planned, and the brightline isn’t HSR.

    China has no chance of winning against the US by this way

    Every year they close the gap by spending hundreds of billions on schools and infrastructure, while we spend hundreds of billions on prisons and bombs.
