      Yes, democracies are inefficient. Any private citizen has the right to take their appeal to the courts. The government is not allowed to ride roughshod over the populace. This is why countries with an extremely strong and non-democratic central government can uproot entire segments of their population, taking away their property rights, and forcing their removal, all in the order to build new infrastructure. Yes, this might improve the country for the majority of its population, but in a mature democracy, the individual has retained their power to affect the government and its ability to force change on its citizens. Selfish maybe, but a good and strong democracy must and should recognize the individual rights of each of its citizens over the combined power of the group.

      How many of those countries can pay back all those Chinese construction/infrastucture loans and refinanced loans now or 50 years from now? None of them can. They are more in debt to China than ever before. So what does China do instead to debt holders? Land grab as credit under the veiled disguise of "mutual cooperation and economic/commercial interests" such as the case of having and new Chinese naval base in Sri Lanka courtesy of the current govn't handing over a major port and also Sri Lankan sovereign territory leased into the next century to power project across the Indian Ocean and to also ensure unimpeded trade of Iranian oil. Anyone would decry this as *imperialism* if it were a western country doing this as it was in the past. In every aspect this should be called out as a new but old Chinese Imperialism. Let's also not lose sight that China will lose out to over a trillion or trillions of dollars if you include interest over the next century in the normal optic way of direct payment. The only other way to recoup investment is for China to take over more foriegn territory, foerign resources, and foreign industries. What is that called again? *IMPERIALISM*

While places like China have put down over 10,000km of high speed rail and Asian nations are in the top 5 every year for best airports. Trains, subways, highways, apartment buildings, airports, bridges, and light rail are expanding across the world.

    Sadly enough California's highspeed railway was and is facing difficulties from the get-go.
    Inland flights in America are much cheaper than in Europe or China, making the rail less 'effective' as alternative transport.
    They added to many stations on the line to satisfy locals, which didn't cut the travel time as much as initially planned, which again upset the larger cities.
    There are severe speed limitations throughout the line, which means it isn't actually an 'HSL' but rather just an express railway most of the time.
    And last but not least, they had to allow freight trains on the network, which is a huge mistake if you aim for passenger traffic.

    @Peterincan 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Great video as always! I'm not sure if I'd count the BRI as a single infrastructure project though. It seems like more of a broad national vision comprised of numerous smaller projects (if you were to count that, you'd probably have to count New York State's $150 billion infrastructure initiative for North America instead of the California HSR line). For Asia I'd pick the $80 billion Chūō Shinkansen
    Maglev line as the biggest single project that's more directly comparable to the others on the list.

    • @eriklakeland3857
      @eriklakeland3857 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed. I'd enjoy a standalone feature on the Chuo Shinkansen on this channel.
      The Chuo Shinkansen is absolutely nuts for the people that aren't aware of it. 90% of the alignment will be in tunnels. The line is 177 miles, Tokyo Shinagawa Station to Nagoya Station in 40 minutes on the express service (AKA speeding by the 4 intermediate stations).
      For reference, a flight from Nagoya Chubu Centrair to Tokyo's Haneda Airport is listed at 1 hr. The maglev becomes yet more attractive when considering the train stations are in the urban core and the airports are further away (closer to more destinations, better transit connections). On top of that, yeah the flight is 1 hr but how much additional time is spent on boarding, security, runway taxiing and baggage claim compared to the train? Easily more than the time spent in the air.

      only Preparity work has been done on HS2 so far, the official infrastructure work has yet to start. With Costs ballooning to well over 100 Billion Pounds its highly likley this project will be scaled back significantly or even pulled all together, which would be short sighted in my view.
