Why invest money in your own infrastructure and new technologies?, screw improving the quality of life for your citizens when you can spend trillions on foolish wars and give the rest away to undeserving countries, wake up America, take your #$%$ country back!!!!
They’re developing trains that go 375mph while we can barely keep Amtrak operating, much less on time. Hmmmm.
在我们勉强着运营铁路业务的时候，中国人在开发375MPH的高铁，输大发了，唉~

I rode twice on the Chinese high speed train for about 1 hour each time an speed up to 200 miles per hour, at a cost of about $20. I enjoyed it. It was better than air travel, more room and without the security hassle.
I wish it would be available in our country. Unfortunately, it will not and not because we are not smart enough, it’s because our political system, inefficient and corrupted.
China is the next super power unless we start investing in new technology and take risks like them!
除非我们像他们一样承担风险投资新科技！中国是下一个超级大国，要超越美国！

We need to re-invest America. Unconditional free education and free health care. Russia, China, and India are getting ahead of us. If we are to maintain our superpower status, screw foreign aid, stop cuagmire wars and the hell with religous #$%$
Our drivers can’t deal with a train rolling through town at 45 mph, can you imagine what would happen if it were doing just 150 mph?
我们的司机连每小时45英里的速度都HOLD不住，你能想象得到如果有每小时150英里会发生什么么？

I’ve ridden the HSR from Putian to Xiamen, China. Business Class seat $6.00 usd. Smooth as glass, quiet. Our US trains systems are stone age in comparison and ridiculously over priced.

Why on earth would the U.S. build something that is efficient and fast? The U.S. will jump on technology that would cost twice as much and three times longer to build. The U.S. has the most debt in the history of mankind, you don’t get that title by being efficient.

Safety is obviously important, but seriously, the article implies that China is suffering from unique problems all due to fast rail service. We actually have lots of train collisions in the U.S. (more than China) with our slow outdated trains.
