Americans don't use trains or public transport. They just drive themselves to wherever they want to go.
Lucas Morris
When you have literal wage slaves, no environmental/safety regulations, all property is state owned, and the government is controlled by a cabal of a few very powerful people with no oversight then yeah it's possible
Their construction materials are subpar too
Charles Adams
Holy mother of cope...

Thanks for the feedback Wang.

Oh wow, using a massive-gas guzzling SUV to transport a single person to a grocery store to buy a carton of eggs. How efficient and well-thought out.
>When you have literal wage slaves
Wages have been on the rise in China.
>no environmental/safety regulations
There are plenty, China has been cracking down on pollution and has seen a dramatic reduction.
>all property is state owned
You realize we're talking about China here right?
>and the government is controlled by a cabal of a few very powerful people with no oversight
You mean like the United States?
>Their construction materials are subpar too
In what way? It seems to be working fine.

Why no high speed rail to Tibet?

Not at all, my amerimutt friend. Sleep well at night, there is nothing to worry about.

Why is economic planning such a bad thing again? Aside from the fact that getting rid of it made all the people around Reagan extremely wealthy?

Why do chink diaspora have no loyalty to their host nations? Every thread I see on this board that praises China and talks badly about America is an American Australian or Canadian flag.
Go gouge out your eyeballs with chopsticks you fucking Zipperhead cunt.
Angel Lewis
They're working on it. There are regular-speed railways that run through Tibet currently but they're already designing a brand new high-speed railway to Lhasa. Tibet is pretty hard to build railways through given how high-elevation and mountainous the region is. No problem that China can't solve though.

Lol I'm white. I just think China is based and redpilled because they're getting shit done while faggot Western countries stagnate and decline because muh liberal democracy.

Michael Anderson

Yeah in the 50s
>Republicans complain about muh spending
Yeah, HSR and transit in general is outrageously expensive

True

Isaiah Wood
You're a fucking pathetic intellectual coward that runs from arguments he cannot support.
Your country has been given a poor infrastructure grade by your own fucking engineers. If you actually cared out your country, the first step is to address its flaws in order to fix them.
I fucking despise blind "patriots". They are what allows a country to rot from the inside.
Jace Hill
>implying the US doesn't have wageslaves
Implying government contracts for HSR construction won't go to firms with unionized labor
>implying the US isn't an oligarchy
Wah fuckin wah
Anthony Young
America!
Planned economy is actually very very bad! You just do you. China is obviously inferior and the infrastructure they are building is due to SOCIALISM and COMMUNISM!
Remember Mao, he killed people!
I hope America never follows that path.
Aaron Ramirez
>Still shit tier
At least their wages are rising with productivity and didn't stagnate 40 years ago like in the US.
>Lol
Nice rebuttal.
>I'm right again
My point was that you're a retard. China has private ownership as well as state-ownership.
>Such as...?
The Clinton and Bush families? The lobbyists that get paid to shill legislation for corporations? Jeffrey Epstein "committing suicide" when arrested and on the verge of outing wealthy and powerful business and political figures for raping underage girls?
>Your own news reported on it, Xiu
Yeah, and the firm was actually punished and the problem was fixed, unlike in the United States where corporations get off scot-free after poisoning water supplies with lead.
Asher Jackson
>Lol I'm white
Stopped reading right there.
I do care, but what am I supposed to do? both parties are equally as corrupt and bought out by corporations.
John Martin
Reminder that China has more social mobility than the US at this point. Anyone whining about how China is a nation of "slaves" or whatever is just relying on outdated memes and propaganda. America's time is done. Accept it and move on.

Union workers in US get job done much more efficient than in China where you get shoddy low quality.

Sebastian Cooper
Why tf are you dumb niggers always going on about china? This board is fucking Zhang central I swear
Carson Nelson
China is so vast and yet most areas are consistently densely populated. Connecting the country with high speed rail is only reasonable. This is not the case for the US with smaller population, making air connection more viable option.
Liam Bennett
so why haven't you renounced your citizenship yet?
Daniel Edwards
Because I still like America, I just want it to not be run by psychopathic pedophiles. Our government is rotten to the core and must be completely destroyed and replaced with a socialist one. China is the only country capable of destroying the neoliberal hegemony. Once our elite have been toppled, the American people will finally awake and finish the job. Then we can join China in helping to repair and develop the world and bring about a glorious shared destiny for all of mankind.

Nope. You are though.

Duuuuude hit this j
>Yeah, and the firm was actually punished and the problem was fixed,
Cool! They fixed one problem. Doubt it's endemic. Nothing to worry about
>corporations get off scot-free after poisoning water supplies with lead.
The lead came from lead pipes on the homeowners' property, not a central government- or corporate-owned source
This is like a jannie bragging they got a 50% raise
Xavier Long
More efficient? Depends on how you look at it I suppose. But they are certainly more skilled and far more expensive
faggot chink
Gabriel Foster
>Still shit tier
Better than stagnation.
>Nope. You are though.
How are you not a retard by saying that China has no private ownership? Even the dumbest retard knows that China has private property.
>Duuuuude hit this j
Typical martsharter denial. "Everyone else's government is corrupt except mine."
>Cool! They fixed one problem. Doubt it's endemic. Nothing to worry about
China prevents the problems by having oversight over their corporations instead of just letting them run all over the third world poisoning water supplies and massacring union organizers.
>The lead came from lead pipes on the homeowners' property, not a central government- or corporate-owned source
Gee, I sure wonder who manufactured those pipes and shilled for continued usage of lead.
Once again, I'm not Chinese I'm white. But keep believing muh ebil Chinaman is out to get you.

Then why did it happen?
>massacring union organizers
They just massacre students in Tiananmen Square
>Gee, I sure wonder who manufactured those pipes
A pipe company
>and shilled for continued usage of lead
It fell by the wayside decades ago, but it's up to the homeowner to fix pipes on their property, not the city
>Once again, I'm not Chinese I'm white.
Wrong

I don't know, diaspora, trolling and maybe actual shills are in full force right now.
Brandon Murphy
Chink shills are only active in the sinosphere. American shills are everywhere though. You can see it in action on popular sites like reddit. Constant anti-china shit, people reposting the Tienanmen square pasta, etc. It's pathetic.
Owen Martin
when a zhang posts about the evil west it's because they're being paid pennies on the hour by the CCP. when an american makes anti-china posts it's because they oppose totalitarianism and human rights violations

It would not be wise for the US to do a railway expansion of that scale. they would fail.
America already has the infrastructure it needs, for the most part, it simply needs to maintain most of it (which some places have but many haven't.)
you are comparing apples and oranges.

Nathan Scott
They have to
Most Chinese are leaving countryside to the big cities for work
Getting there is already a long journey for people and the city is already crowded so they need people living right outside the city to be able to come for work and get home
It is such a clusterfuck of people and I wish to never live like that again
I worked in Tianmen Station in Beijing and a 2 minute walk to transfer took 15 minutes because of all the people. And my coworkers all lived in dorms because they were from outside the city and sent their paychecks back home.
Gabriel Foster
china's wealth is state owned so when state wants to get a project done they will get it done. Here the corporations control all the wealth and they dont give two shits about public projects that dont benefit their companies, and your average joe's taxx dollar isnt enough to pay massive infrastructures
