Since 2008, $15B taxpayer dollars have been invested in California High Speed Rail. There is no working track and zero passengers so far.
In the same time frame $12B in private funds were invested in SpaceX pre IPO.
SpaceX has 10,000 Starlink satellites serving 10 million customers and has taken 74 passengers into orbit.
Politicians tell you they’ll do better with Elon’s money than he does. California shows the truth.
