Americans are rich so we have cars and planes 😂

Cope. If the maps were switched, you’d be telling yourself the inverse story. 

The right answer is that the US has the best railroad system in the world…for freight.

Measuring things at @spindl.

My FID is lower than all but 52 of you.

Not really. So’s Europe. It’s a longer story why the US has a good freight railway and shit passenger rail. 

Also, gross incompetence by the government. The French came in to try and help California build rail (like they do with developing countries) and they bailed for Morocco. Too corrupt.
