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

            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.

                    You think Americans own the legal right to say smartass? Or any other word for that matter? I wonder where I might have heard it…… oh that’s right, America’s immense cultural export into my country coupled with the Internet.

                    As we know, the word smartass has never been uttered in a movie, book, TV show, English speaking website, the news, or any other place. It it illegal and punishable by drone strike if someone uses a phrase deemed “American” by ElHexo (Per Executive Order #524 Section 3 Clause 2).

                    Grow up.
