 @0fb32fbe  at this point the US needs city wide rail connecting outer towns with rhe center. Even Slowenia can afford Stadler Rail (Google their models). Many growing US towns have lots of space to spare for the rails. For now. 
High Speed needs a peculiar jump in resources, aka upper class usage bc of pricing. The few parts of Switzerland who are above 140km/h are money pits and only work bc of full capacity use, every day 365 days.
