The so-called high-speed rail could never become a reality in the United States, because we cannot isolate the rail line from people like they can in communist nations where they just seize land from people, towns, cities, counties and states over all their cries and objections. It will only result in a rail that “could” go high speed, but never will be allowed to.

There are other reasons such as cost to condemn high speed rail but taking land by eminent domain is not one of them.

How do you think the land for interstate highways are obtained in this country?
