Re: Why the US has no High speed rail, one opinion

The strategy had little to do with representation in Congress. The study looked at the effect of US bombing of German industry and in the time honored tradition of defending for the next war based on the previous one, expended billions on valueless measures. Think the Maginot line of pillbox defense built after WWI which were simply driven around by tanks. (Historical note, while many credit Heinz Guderian as the tank warfare genius, a strategy paper from a young Charles de Gaulle was what inspired him.)
