Apparently all Musk wanted to do with this was undercut any attempts at high speed rail in California.

          That’s compared to the third largest country in the world. California is a country in itself.

              True, but 98% of that land is uninhabitable/uninhabited. If counted the area where you have more then one person per 200 miles, Australia would be much much smaller then California. The entire population is centered in 5 cities. Which is reflected pretty decently with the Australian population being 10 million people less then California.

              It’s like how Canada is the second largest country in the world, but no one takes them seriously because it’s all uninhabited wastes.

              I was referring more to African and European states.

                  Idk where you’re going with this. California could be a pretty regular medium sized country by size. Obviously it’s not, but it’s not that big of a deal lol.

                  I’m not an American, smartass. Maybe you can do some self crit as to why you’re so hostile about absolutely nothing.
