    Yes, central planning and budgeting.

    People in the US assume the rest of the world is a lawless hell hole when many countries including China have stronger protections against eminent domain.

    The real reason you haven’t gotten HSR isn’t technical, is political. Israel has first-dips on the US budget. Reminds me of something someone I knew used to say: “the American will sell his kids before cutting aid to Israel”.

      I mean I brought up the political aspect. The auto manufacturers and oil lobby have their own input in democratic discourse.
