why would you pay for a 5 hour trip between LA and san Fran via train when you can take a plane for under 100 dollars.
Take into account the infrastructure cost (77 billion dollars) / 40 million Cali citizens= $1925
You can pay for many tanks of gas and many plane tickets for every citizens to get them between LA and San Francsico.
The project was totally unfeasable.

Something about this project just makes people invent wildly inaccurate facts, I don't get it. The train, as currently planned, would be 3 hours, not 5. I'm not even going to address the rest of the nonsense you've been spouting, it's just not worth it.
